Episode Synopsis
In this episode of Both Success And Integrity With Bessi Graham, Bessi chats with Business Advisor, Isaac Jeffries about the Business Model Canvas. Isaac Jeffries explains that IDEO's three lenses - desirability, feasibility, and viability - help to understand how to use a business model. Every business owner needs a sustainable way to find and delight customers, run the business smoothly, and make more money than they spend. The Business Model Canvas helps you unpack these three lenses and how you can use them to strengthen your business. The Canvas helps to identify the incentive for customers to try something new and switch from what they are doing today. Isaac Jeffries suggests that starting with the customer and their needs is the best place to begin building a business model. Also in this episode: Why desirability, feasibility, and viability are the three lenses every business owner needs to use when designing their business model. While your personal mission may not always be part of your marketing message, alignment between your mission and your business will sustain you over the long haul and create loyalty with ideal customers. The Canvas is a useful tool for quickly adapting and changing your business model, as it allows you to easily make adjustments based on changes in partners, location, customer, revenue streams, and more.
