As a team The Big Wheel Consultancy has over 40 years’ experience of working with recurring revenue businesses building profitable subscription files, membership bases and charitable supporter databases. The single most valuable lesson we have learnt is that strategies based on solid data analysis and informed data modelling really work. Strategies that ignore the data are little more than just guesswork and usually fail.
The Big Wheel Consultancy brings together pragmatic strategic advice and detailed data analysis to help our clients succeed in growing their recurring revenues.

Strategic consultancy to help you grow your recurring revenue business
We get asked about all elements of the recurring revenue model. These are currently the top 4 areas our clients value our advice on:
A business that has a solid customer base and now wants to grow the average revenue per customer and/or the average life time value of their customers. Our clients use us to model the opportunity and to develop the strategic plan.
A business with limited experience of the recurring revenue model that is looking to launch a new subscription or membership product. Our clients ask us to advise them on developing the business plan and budget, putting together the team and technologies and creating the implementation framework.
A business which owns or has recently acquired a small but increasingly successful recurring revenue business. Our clients want to accelerate the growth fast and want to know how to do this with minimum risk.
An established subscription or membership business that has started to underperform. Our clients ask us to identify why the business is underperforming and what they should do about it.

Understanding your data is key to a successful recurring revenue business
We get asked about all elements of the recurring revenue model. These are currently the top 4 areas our clients value our advice on:
Our clients ask us to assess their use of data to understand whether their current performance is good or bad. We use best practice comparisons and external benchmarks to provide objective answers.
Our clients ask us to help them identify the metrics that matter to the overall health of their recurring revenue business. We then measure those metrics to help drive up performance.
We work with our clients to uncover the data that explains current performance and is predictive of future performance. Armed with this insight our clients know what to change to increase their future recurring revenues.
We use client data to plan and forecast how a customer base will perform across a variety of possible future scenarios.
Our 4 step process...
We work closely with our clients’ data teams to agree the most effective approach to deliver value.
To create understanding of client performance we use visualisations and analysis to get to the heart of performance. We work with you to establish what data does or doesn’t exist and how what you already know can build further insight.
We use dashboard solutions to highlight and track the key measures that will influence future decision making.
Using proven techniques and the best software solutions we create statistical models which have real practical application to your business objectives.
Past behaviour helps describe likely future customer outcomes but this is not always the case or past data is not always available. Our experience and expertise means we can create meaningful forecast business models even if the available data is poor.
