Trying to figure out whether your business idea has any merit can be a daunting process. Business plans take a lot of time and energy to pull together for an idea you may not be sure will succeed. The Lean Start-Up with Business Model Canvas is a tool and process for discovering the best business model for your idea without investing too many resources. It is most successfully used as a precursor to the business planning step. First, you ask yourself, “Do I have a viable idea (business model)?” If yes, the next step is the development of a business plan. But, there is no reason to go through all the work of a business plan if you don’t have a good and viable business model to start with!
In this session, Extension Specialist Kevin Bernhardt and Educators Steph Plaster, and Ben Jenkins will walk through examples of how Lean Start-Up with Business Model Canvas can be used to stress test a new business enterprise or changes to your current business.
