Business Models Overview

  • Business models define how a firm creates, delivers, and captures value for stakeholders.
  • They are crucial for long-term success, particularly for novel products or services.

Impact of IT on Business Models

  • The IT industry enhances income potential through online advertising and subscription access.
  • Digital platforms have broadened the scope and application of various business models.

List of Business Models

  • Advertising: Generates income from ads across digital platforms; prevalent on sites like YouTube.
  • Affiliate: Involves embedding links within content where commissions are earned on sales (e.g., movie reviews linking to Amazon).
  • Brokerage: Connects buyers and sellers, charging fees per transaction (e.g., real estate agencies).
  • Concierge/Customization: Enriches existing products with unique elements tailored to customers (e.g., Nike custom shoes).
  • Crowdsourcing: Engages many contributors to generate content, often paired with advertising models (e.g., Patreon).
  • Disintermediation: Sells products directly to consumers, bypassing intermediaries (e.g., Dell selling computer parts).
  • Fractionalization: Sells portions of a product rather than the whole item (e.g., Disney Vacation Club rentals).
  • Franchise: Offers a business model to others (e.g., Jollibee or 7-11 for running local branches).
  • Freemium: Provides basic services for free while charging for premium features (e.g., mobile apps with optional purchases).
  • Leasing: Similar to renting, where the customer pays to use a product temporarily (e.g., car rentals).
  • Low-touch: Reduces service levels to lower costs, requiring customer involvement (e.g., IKEA furniture assembly).
  • Marketplace: Facilitates transactions between buyers and sellers, earning from various fees (e.g., Lazada, Shopee).
  • Pay-as-you-go: Charges based on actual usage rather than upfront purchases (e.g., water supply utilities).
  • Razor Blade: Sells primary products at low cost while profiting from recurring purchases of consumable components (e.g., Gillette razors).
  • Reverse razor blade: High-margin products are sold initially, with low-margin add-ons keeping customers engaged (e.g., Apple apps).
  • Reverse auction: Buyers select from lowest bids provided by sellers, common in contracting (e.g., construction projects).
  • Subscription: Charges recurring fees for access to services, becoming increasingly popular (e.g., Netflix, YouTube).
  • Access to Excess: Connects excess supply of services with buyers (e.g., Airbnb, Grab).
