Try A Month Without...Too Many Subscriptions!
How many subscriptions do you think you have? Go on. Pencil them down. I'll wait.
...
Did you get them all? Most people don't. Most people (according to one widely cited study) VASTLY underestimate how many services they have and how much the subscriptions cost.
We at TAMW are not anti-subscription. We have subscriptions that we love! But can we all agree that the more mindful the subscription the better?
We'll get real vulnerable and share our list of subscriptions over the last year (no judgment, please!):
VIDEO: Hulu, Netflix, Playstation Vue, HBOGo, Starz, Showtime, YouTube Channels, Criterion Channel
MUSIC: Apple Music, Tidal, Qobuz, Third Man Records Vault, Audible, Podcasts
NEWS: Apple News+, Stereophile, Wall Street Journal, Monocle, alumni magazines
SHOPPING: Costco, Thrive Market, Amazon Prime, Quip, Fess Parker Wine Club
TECH: iCloud, Adobe Photoshop, iVPN, Ulysses, TextExpander, Peloton
Yikes. That’s a lot. So we're going to go through the list and really think about which ones we're getting real value from.
Otherwise we're just doing this:
We're giving you a lot of leeway here - you don't necessarily have to cancel anything. But at least take the time to go through your list of subscriptions and think through their value to you. It may be time to let go of a few.
Ok, so are you ready to try a month without too many subscriptions? Sign up now.
