 For our purposes, this is a process for determining whether
business model generates a viable margin
 Who determines viability?
 The Steps:
 Assess revenue model (# units, unit price)
 Assess expense model (fixed, variable)
 Generate margin

Financial Modeling
息 Norm Tasevski
 Step 1: Assess Revenue Model
 2 parts: # units sold and price/unit
 How do we define a unit?
 The value proposition perceived as having value by the
customer, and to which the customer is willing to pay a price
 The relationship between units and price:
 The more custom a unit, the fewer that can be offered and
the costlier the unit is to make. The product is perceived as
more valuable, and therefore price is higher
 The more commoditized a unit, the more that can be offered
and the cheaper the unit is to make. The product is perceived
as less valuable, and therefore price is lower
 How do we determine price?
 This iscomplicated

Financial Modeling  Determining Price

Determine cost + desired margin
(see step 2)
Ask people!!!
(friends, potential customers, etc)
息 Norm Tasevski
 Step 2: Determine Cost Model
 2 parts: fixed costs, variable costs
 Fixed:
 The costs that dont change as more units are sold
 Example: rent
 Goal: determine the total fixed costs incurred
 Variable:
 The costs that do change as more units are sold
 Example: raw materials used to build the product
 Goal: determine the per unit fixed costs incurred
 A note: all fixed costs are variable over time!

 The key business and social metrics used to
execute the business model in a way that
aligns with the financial model
 Business targets:
 Revenue targets (e.g. # units sold in the quarter)
 Expense targets (e.g. target marketing budget)
 Social targets:
 Output targets (e.g. # people employed)
 Outcome targets (e.g. increase in community
resiliency)
 SMART

Target Setting
息 Norm Tasevski
 Baseline vs. Target
 Baseline: your starting point  the reference metrics
 Target: the measurable improvement from the baseline
 Linking targets to the business model
 Each element of the canvas deserves their own metrics (e.g. target #
customers, target #/type of activities to run)
