About Business Model Canvas

The Business Model Canvas is a one-page template capturing nine building blocks of a business model, from Customer Segments and Value Propositions to Revenue Streams and Cost Structure.

Start with Customer Segments and Value Propositions — the strategic core
Every other block (channels, resources, activities, partners) exists to deliver the value proposition
Revenue Streams and Cost Structure reveal the economic logic of the model
Each block is an assumption to be tested, not a fact to be stated
