The Four Parts of a Business Model | The Offering, Customers, Infrastructure, and Financial viability |
It is what you are offering to a particular customer segment, the value generated for those customers, and how you will reach and communicate with them. | The Offering |
It includes the customer value proposition (CVP), which describes exactly what products or services your business offers and sells to customers. how you can help customers do something more inexpensively | The Offering |
It includes the people who populate the segments of a market that your offering is serving. Entrepreneurs typically can’t serve everyone in a market, so you have to choose whom best to target | Customers |
It includes all the resources (people, technology, products, suppliers, partners, facilities, cash, etc.) that an entrepreneur must have to deliver the CVP. | Infrastructure |
The revenue and cost structures a business needs to meet its operating expenses and financial obligations: How much will it cost to deliver the offering to our customers? | Financial Viability |
The business model consists of four main interlocking parts that together create “the business”. Each can be a source of innovation and advantage over the competition. | True |

(The Offering) The CVP is designed to solve a customer problem or meet a need. | Value Proposition |
(Customers) a part of the customer grouping of a market. | Customer Segments |
(Customers) The value proposition is delivered through communication, distribution, and sales channels. The core question here: What are all the ways in which you can reach your customer? | Channels |

(Infrastructure) What are the most important activities that the company participates in to get the job done? | Key Activities |
(Infrastructure) Resources are what you need to develop the business, create products and services, and deliver on your CVP. Resources take many forms and include people, technology, information, and physical and financial resources. | Key Resources |
(Infrastructure) Entrepreneurs are not able to do everything by themselves, so partnering with suppliers, associates, and distributors is a logical option, not only for strategic purposes but also for efficiency needs. | Key Partners |
(Financial Via) Revenue is generated if a successful value proposition is delivered. Here you need to ask: How much are my customers willing to pay? How many customers do I need? | Revenue Streams |
(Financial Via) It represents all expenses required to execute and run the business model. What are the most important costs inherent in the business model? Which resources are the most expensive to get? Which activities are the most expensive? | Cost Structure |

it’s about finding a goal—a job that the customer needs done—and then proposing a way to fulfill that goal. It’s about uncovering what your customer needs and providing solutions to meet those needs. | True |
