Quick gut check for the room.
Do you know exactly what your business pays for in software subscriptions every month?
Not roughly. Exactly.
Most owners cannot answer that question off the top of their head. And it is not because they are disorganised. It is because every tool renews on its own date, from its own login, at a price that quietly changes without warning.
The forgotten tool still billing two years later. The licenses for staff who left six months ago. The platform three people in the business are each paying for separately because nobody ever thought to check.
It adds up quietly. And it keeps adding up until someone finally sits down and goes through it all.
We call that a subscription audit. It takes less than an hour.

You might be surprised when you actually count them.
