2. Patterns Unbundling business models The long tail
Multi-sided platforms Free as a business model Open business models Business Model Generation (Osterwalder and Pigneur, 2010) 2/15/2019
17
1. Unbundling business models
Customer Relationship Management Infrastructure Management Product Innovation Early market entry enables charging premium prices and acquiring large market share; speed is key High cost of customer acquisition makes it imperative to gain wallet share; economics of scope are key High fixed costs make large volumes essential to achieve low unit costs; economics of sale are key Battle for talent; low barriers to entry; many small players thrive Battle for scope; rapid consolidation; a few big players dominate Battle for scale; rapid consolidation; a few big players dominate Employee entered; coddling the create stars Highly service oriented; customer-comes-first mentality Cost focused; stresses standardization, predictability and efficiency Economics Competition Culture Examples: mobile telecom industry, private banking industry Business Model Generation (Osterwalder and Pigneur, 2010) 2/15/2019
18
2. Long tail business models
Selling less of more; large number of niche products, each of which sells relatively infrequently Moving away from only selling ‘hit’ products Examples: Netflix, eBay, YouTube, Facebook, Lulu.com (book publishing), Lego Factory Drivers Democratization of tools of production (e.g. movie making) Democratization of distribution (on Internet) Falling search cost of connecting supply with demand Business Model Generation (Osterwalder and Pigneur, 2010) 2/15/2019

3. Multi-sided platforms
Brings together two or more distinct but interdependent groups of customers. Product value by: Facilitating interactions Network effect (more leads to more) Same-side effect and other-side effect One side generates revenue, and other side is subsidized Examples: Visa, Google, eBay, Microsoft Windows SDK, Financial Times, Wii game console, Metro (free newspaper) Business Model Generation (Osterwalder and Pigneur, 2010) 2/15/2019

5. Open Business Models Principles of innovation Closer Open
The smart people in our field work with us We need to work with smart people both inside and outside our company To profile from research and development, we must discover it, develop it, and ship it ourselves External R&D can create significant value; internal R&D is needed to claim some portion of that value In we conduct most of the best research in the industry, we will win. We don’t have to originate the research to benefit from it If we create the most or the best ideas in the industry, we will win. If we make the best use of internal and external ideas, we win. We should control our innovation process, so that competitors don’t profit from our ideas We should profit from others’ use of our innovations, and we should buy others’ intellectual property whenever it advances our own interest Business Model Generation (Osterwalder and Pigneur, 2010) 2/15/2019
28
Outside-in versus inside-out approaches
Key Partners Other company’s IP External scientists Retires scientists Key Activities Internal R&D Key Resources Cost Structure Leveraging internal R&D Procter & Gamble: Connect and Develop Value Proposition IP for underserved diseases Customer Relation Acquisition Retention Customer Segments Outside researchers Channels Patent pools Revenue Streams License fee GlaxoSmithKline: Patent Pools Business Model Generation (Osterwalder and Pigneur, 2010) 2/15/2019

3. Design Customer insights Ideation Visual thinking Prototyping
Storytelling Scenarios Business Model Generation (Osterwalder and Pigneur, 2010) 2/15/2019
31
1. Customer insights “If I had asked my customers what they wanted, they would have told me ‘a faster horse.’”- Henry Ford Empathy Map What does the customer SEE? What does the customer HEAR? What does the customer SAY and DO? What does the customer THINK and FEEL? PAIN GAIN Business Model Generation (Osterwalder and Pigneur, 2010) 2/15/2019
32
2. Ideation A creative process for generating a large number of (business model) ideas and successfully isolating the best ones. Generation Synthesis Suggested approaches: Epicenters of Business Model Innovation What if? Analysis Business Model Generation (Osterwalder and Pigneur, 2010) 2/15/2019
33
Epicenters of Business Model Innovation
Resource- driven Offer- driven Customer- driven Finance- driven Example: Amazon Web Services Example: Cemex (Mexican cement company) Example: 23andMe (personalized DNA testing) Example: Xerox 914 (lease at $95 per month, 2000 free copies, 5 cents per copy Business Model Generation (Osterwalder and Pigneur, 2010) 2/15/2019
34
Power of ‘what if’ questions
Examples IKEA (buyers pick up components in flat packaging and assemble themselves) Rolls-Royce (maintenance price for every hour an engine runs) Skype (free voice calling over Internet) Car2go by Daimler (car rental anywhere in the city) Zopa (peer-to-peer landing system) Grameen Phone (microfinance coupled with mobile devices) Business Model Generation (Osterwalder and Pigneur, 2010) 2/15/2019
35
Ideation Process Brainstorming rules
General approach Team composition (diverse at all levels) Immersion (home work on customer, technology, trends, business models) Expanding (ideation with a focus on quantity, not quality) Criteria selection (e.g. implementation time, revenue potential, possible customer resistance, and impact on competitive advantage) Prototyping (creation of a business model for shortlisted ideas) Brainstorming rules Stay focused on a well honed statement Enforce rules, such as deferring judgment, go for quality, encourage wild ideas, etc. Think visually with post-it notes, sketches, etc. Prepare, with an immersion exercise beforehand Business Model Generation (Osterwalder and Pigneur, 2010) 2/15/2019
36
3. Visual Thinking Sketches- however rudimentary or amateurish- help people better describe, discuss, and understand issues. Suggested processes Visualizing with Post-it notes Visualizing with drawings Understand the essence Enhance dialogue Explore ideas Improve communication Telling a visual story Business Model Generation (Osterwalder and Pigneur, 2010) 2/15/2019
37
4. Prototyping For pre-implementation visualization and testing
Tool of inquiry Infuses a design attitude, which includes Willingness to explore crude ideas Rapidly discarding them Take time to examine multiple possibilities Accept uncertainty until design direction matures Scale of prototypes Napkin sketches elaborate canvas business case field- test Business Model Generation (Osterwalder and Pigneur, 2010) 2/15/2019
38
5. Storytelling Why storytelling?
Introducing the new (provoke ideas/ justify change/ introducing tangibility) Pitching to inventors (for clarification) Engaging employees Typical starting points (choice of protagonist) Company perspective (employee observer) Customer perspective (customer jobs) Techniques: Talk and image Video clips Role play Text and image Comic strip Business Model Generation (Osterwalder and Pigneur, 2010) 2/15/2019
