Based in the experience of Entrepreneurs and Business Angels in Portugal and Europe, desgining and modelling Business Models incorporate a set of "key factors".
I appreciate the article of Professor Vivek Wadhwa, but still there are a few topcs, which absolutely make the difference.
Examples.
1. For one, I'm referring to revenue process. It is not only a question of pricing and selling to customers. It is also a matter of defining and adjusting the best revenue process to the value proposition. It is not indifferent if a customer pays the same "price" in one time or in several steps, or even according to a rent process. So, "target", "products and services", "pricing", "selling" and "revenue process" constitute the "Value Proposition part".
2. Another relevant set of issues for the Business Model has to do with the "value chain", the "cost model" and "organization and partnerships", to complete what I call the "Operating Model part" that is crucial to the implementation and are composed by activites, capablites and resources.
All of those factors are the pieces of the "jigsaw puzzle", that constitutes the "Business Model". Filipe Pamplona de Castro Soeiro, visiting assistant professor at FEUNL
