The Business Model
15
www.enterpriserich.co.uk Business Model Value hypothesis & growth hypothesis The business model will most likely be in two parts: 1.The value hypothesis… i.e. “ME Ltd does X which is valuable to customers because of Y” 1.The growth plan… i.e. “existing customers do A which creates growth by B” value / growth / income
16
www.enterpriserich.co.uk Business Model value / growth / income There are a myriad of different ways that a business model works when you look at the detail. Try to create a simple sentence or two that define your business model. Here are some questions and ideas to help: What is the value hypothesis? What does your business do / make? Why is that valuable for a customer? Why is that more valuable than the alternative? What generates income? (customers pay X for Y)
17
www.enterpriserich.co.uk Business Model value / growth / income The growth plan – i.e. “existing customers do A which creates growth by B.” “Your growth plan doesn’t have to be world domination but every business needs to grow and evolve.” What is the growth plan? Does each customer spend more money or do you get more customers? Where do new customers come from? Why do they come? What generates the growth (state your main method): 1.Word of mouth 2.Usage (ie new customers see existing customers using it 3.Advertising 4.Repeat purchase
