  • 6.1 VALUE PROPOSITION

    A business’ value proposition aims at visualizing the value creation for customers, starting from the existing market needs and demands to get to the final outcome that can maximize the quality of the delivery. The value creation is strongly related to the customer profile and the kind of job that needs to be done, which also arises from the intersection between customers’ desires and product and services’ features. Highlighting the strategy that best connects customers’ needs with the company’s experience and products/services range not only helps facilitate the execution, but also provides third parties and stakeholders in general with a better understanding of the company itself.

  • 6.2 CUSTOMER SEGMENTS

    Customer Segments refers to the various groups or organizations that a business aims to reach and serve. Customers are at the heart of any business model – without them there can be no revenue or profit. In order to better define and serve customer needs, businesses group their customers into segments according to their needs, attributes and behaviors. This helps the business to know which types of customers to focus on and which ones to ignore. Matching customer segments with your value proposition helps to create focus as well as strong revenue streams.

  • 6.3 CUSTOMER RELATIONSHIPS

    The building block of Customer Relationships defines the nature of the relationships that an entity develops with its various Customer Segments. Establishing and maintaining good customer relations can be key in customer retention, new customer acquisition and the increase of revenue.

  • 6.4 CHANNELS

    This building block defines how an organization communicates with and provides value to its chosen customer segment. Channels are the touch points through which an organization liaises with its customers and as such, play a huge role in defining the customer experience. The main purposes of channels can be summarized as follows: A medium for educating customers; Providing customers with an opportunity to assess and understand your value proposition; Giving customers and opportunity to purchase your products or services; Engaging with your target market to build awareness and authority.

  • 6.4 KEY PARTNERS

    Key Partnerships are the networks of organizations, suppliers and partners that enable the business model to work. Companies enter into key partnerships to optimize their value chains, to obtain economies of scale, to reduce risk and uncertainty and to acquire specific resources or activities.
