The Complete Guide to the Business Model Canvas

Map your whole business on a single page: nine blocks, one clear story.

The Business Model Canvas describes how an organisation creates, delivers and captures value across nine blocks: customer segments, value propositions, channels, customer relationships, revenue streams, key resources, key activities, key partners and cost structure.

How to use it

  1. Start with customer segments and the value you offer them.
  2. Define how you reach them and how you earn revenue.
  3. List what you need (resources, activities, partners) and what it costs.
  4. Test every assumption with real customers and update.
