Business Model
How a company creates, delivers and captures value — i.e. how it makes money.
The business model covers revenue streams, pricing, cost structure, channels and customer segments. Common models include subscription, marketplace, transactional, freemium and licensing. A clear, proven model reassures investors that growth converts into sustainable revenue.
Examples
A freemium app converts 4% of free users to paid. — A marketplace takes a 15% commission per transaction.
