The customer surplus is the value discrepancy in what you deliver and the price that you charge for it.

Creating a fortune requires consistently thinking about how to make the product or service so that no one stops buying it.
The Three-Step Process to Create a Billion-Dollar Unicorn Company
The first step is to get enough promotion to get customers.
Pricing should be high enough that people will care but not so high that you're trying to maximize profit.
The second step is to optimize the product so that people never want to leave.
Continually testing the product is necessary until you get to the point where people don't leave.
The third step is to start scaling the product once you have something where people don't stop buying.
Creating Things That People Will Never Stop Buying
Interviewing customers, surveying them, and looking at usage patterns are necessary to create things that people will never stop buying.

Doing these things over and over again until you get to the point where you have one percent or two percent monthly churn is necessary.
