DTC world is small and big at the same time. While the market is huge, there are a few big names that everyone has heard of and Jolie shower heads is one of them.

For those who don’t know about Jolie, it’s a filtered shower head brand that removes chlorine, heavy metals & other contaminants from your shower water — to improve your skin, hair and wellbeing.

Jolie’s Subscription Model

Jolie sells shower heads and shower head filters. These are two separate SKUs and shouldn’t be confused as one. When a visitors lands on their PDP, they are given two options:

One-time purchase option is simple, you get one shower head and one filter.

But let’s do a deep dive into their subscription option.

If a customer selects subscription then for the first order they get a Jolie shower head, a filter plus they also enroll in a filter subscription.

People using the shower head would require a new filter every 90 days or so. So while the shower head SKU is sold as a one-time product, the filter is a subscription product. 

DTC Subscription Model: Refill Flow

This is a typical refill flow where the a brands has a high-value SKU which has to be sold initially like a coffee roaster, followed by recurring shipment of its refills like tea, or coffee.

One of our merchant Mushroom Design is using the exact same model to create a refill flow where the first box of mushroom supplement is swapped by just the pills (not the box) from the second order.

Creating a flow like this takes literally 2 minutes and can be done for any DTC brand. You just have to create two different SKU’s and swap the higher-value one with the refill product from the second order onward.

It’s that easy. Create one by installing our app on Shopify here (free 14 day trial).
