Core vs. context: Billing isn’t your core business
While technology teams often have a clear understanding of their business's core product or service, staying laser-focused on that core can prove challenging. Often, the reality is that there are contextual factors–such as internal billing, payments, tax, and security solutions–that demand attention and can detract from the main objectives.
As a subscription-based business, it's important to acknowledge that billing–while necessary–may not be the key differentiating factor for your product offering. If you've opted to build your own recurring billing solution or are currently in the process, you're familiar with the trade-offs involved. It requires valuable resources that could otherwise be allocated to innovation and creating new, exciting features for your valued subscribers.
Another aspect to consider is the compliance and regulatory side of billing technology. The intricacies of taxes, accounting regulations, and navigating cross-border payments introduce risk into any business. To ensure you remain in good standing, it's essential to have a team of financial and security experts who can expertly manage the complexities and mitigate these risks.
Finding the right balance between managing the necessary context and staying true to your core objectives is a challenge that many subscription technology leaders face.
