3 business concepts at a glance: What would you like to be?
- Manufacturer: Smart processes are necessary here in order to create good products with little financial investment, especially at the beginning. What are your options? Find a cooperation partner with a company in whose production you can build a prototype. Rent a so-called makerspace in order to save on building an expensive factory. A makerspace is a workshop that you can rent for a short time to tinker with. Would you like to develop a new bread? Why not ask a baker who only uses his production facility at night until the early hours of the morning? Other possible products can be hardware or other technical devices.
- Retailer: As a retailer, you do not have to manufacture a product, but obtain it cheaply from somewhere and reach the target group. The retail sales monopoly has broken down. Today anyone can sell products on Amazon, eBay and Alibaba. Many manufacturers even offer white label products. You can have your name, logo or any other design printed on it at low cost. A good example is Spreadshirt. There you can have your own design printed on the products and include them on your website. Spreadshirt takes care of the rest. May I introduce: Amazon FBA. FBA stands for Fulfillment by Amazon. Fulfillment is a service from delivery of goods, storage, repackaging and repackaging to shipping. In this case, Amazon takes over the entire process for an after-work startup. There are other fulfillment providers as well. Just enter “fulfillment” on Google.
- Expert: How do you build up an expert status? I answer this important question in the field of marketing. With this goal it is particularly important that you invest in scalable products. The difference between speaker and trainer makes it clear: The trainer or coach has to accept mandates again and again and work off assignments for strangers. The speaker, on the other hand, works on his books and e-books and speaks in front of a large audience. It scales over the number of participants. He usually earns more in 45 minutes than a coach in several trainings.
4 busness methods at a glance: Do I have to reinvent the wheel?
- Transferring ideas: You can transfer existing, successful ideas to new fields. This method is by far the most commonly used. The transfer to other industries can make sense. For example, Airbnb has pioneered the provision of housing that has not been used. Uber was able to use this successful example to offer a private taxi service. Almost everyone has a car and thus the possibility of transporting someone. This solution is much cheaper than a normal taxi. Because with Uber you can choose whether you want a single "taxi" or whether you want to share the costs with people ...
