Industries
The freemium model is possible due to the ability to duplicate and distribute products digitally over the internet. The distributions can be in their millions thus creating a situation where the cost of producing and distribution is virtually zero. Going by this very same logic it makes business sense to give a substantial amount of the product free in order to make some profit from a select few products.
Since the enabling factor behind the very idea of freemium emerged from the IT industry it is but natural that the IT industry was also the first to experiment with this revolutionary business model.
While it is true that the most active freemium models can be found in the IT industry, the potential for freemium in other industries is tremendous. Freemium can most definitely play a “game changing” role in a lot of other industries as well. We are already seeing a range of exciting and successful examples in other industries.
