How this works:

Each month, 250 new customers arrive. In the gray scenario, they all buy once and never return. In the teal scenario, 30% of them subscribe (recurring monthly with 92% retention), while the remaining 70% still buy once. Subscribers keep paying each month, so revenue compounds over time.

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about launching rabbit hay subscription subscriptions on Shopify with Beez.

Rabbits need constant access to fresh hay for digestion and dental health. A subscription ensures a consistent supply, saving owners time and worry.

Timothy hay is ideal for adult rabbits. Orchard grass and oat hay are also good options. Alfalfa hay is typically for young, growing, or pregnant rabbits.

Most rabbit owners prefer monthly or bi-monthly deliveries, depending on the number of rabbits and their consumption rate.

Many subscriptions offer options to choose hay types, add treats, or adjust delivery frequency through a customer portal.

Look for providers with satisfaction guarantees or options to switch hay types. Offering variety boxes can also help.

Store hay in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area away from direct sunlight. Bins with air holes or breathable bags are ideal.
