4: Consider Your Business Model
Based on the BMC chart, does it make sense to proceed with this new product/service? [Insert response here.]
What are the risks to your business model? For example, do you have the right relationships with suppliers and partners to create the value proposition and bring it to market? [Insert response here.]
Are there things that can or should be changed to strengthen the business model to reduce its risk? (Refer to the SWOT analysis.) (Example: having multiple suppliers to protect the project) [Insert response here.]
5: Clarify Your Business Model Assumptions
Check each response in your previous BMC chart against the following criterion:
How do you know that what you wrote in each block is true? Have you made an assumption, or do you have solid evidence in the form of documented facts (based on research)?
Using the table on the next slide, list your assumptions and fill in the relevant information as follows:
Where you have facts, write the evidence in the “Fact” column.
Where you have made assumptions, check the “Assumption” column.
The table will help you identify where more research is still needed to address your assumptions.
