Many promising startups fail—not due to poor product or lack of funding—but because of flawed or unsustainable business models. This blog will dissect the core components of a scalable business model and how startups can optimize:
- Value proposition clarity
- Target customer alignment
- Revenue vs. cost structure
- Key resources, channels, and partnerships
- Unit economics and pricing logic
- Monetization strategy vs. growth strategy
It will also showcase real-world examples of successful pivots and business model iterations that transformed startups into category leaders (e.g., Slack pivoting from a game company, or Netflix evolving from DVD rentals to streaming).
