Subscription services are the latest hot ticket item on consumer wish lists and Quarterly.co is the latest company offering quarterly subscriptions -- but with a twist.
The ideology of the company centers around a community of like-minded people who can connect with each other in a more tangible way. Any user can sign up and subscribe to a certain influential contributor and they're a lot to choose from. From the founders of CoolHunter.com, to Scott Belsky (founder of Behance) to futurists, designers and writers, you have your pick of the mill when it comes to who you want to receive a special gift from. In terms of what you get from your contributor, Founder and CEO Zach Frechette says, "Each product will reflect on the person who chose it, and help inform your understanding of them."
