Summary

If you want to generate passive revenue, multiple cash flows, control your industry’s innovation, know more about your customers and market trends, and steer your competition to your favor, then keep reading.

With the platform business model you will experience significant organic growth; you will gain organic insights into your market, industry, and customers to directly aid you in your R&D and strategy development; you will through your independent producers on your platform be able to control compatibility and standardization in your industry’s production, and thus the larger innovation direction. You will be able to steer competition in your industry in your favor. You are missing out if you at least are not considering what the platform business model can do for you.

A platform is the meeting place of independent producers and individual consumers. But the producers do not come if there are no consumers, and the consumers do not come if there is nothing to purchase on your platform. How do you get over this interdependency? How do you manage both an independent producing side and your private consumer side? Where are the pitfalls? This audiobook will give you the answers to all those questions and then some.

  • Get acquainted with the platform business model and discover if you are missing out on it
  • Know what unique alteration the platform business model hold, that few know about – not even the big technology platforms
  • In this book you will discover what the business model is, how to launch it, when not to launch it, how to manage it, and if a unique variant of the model is more for you

I have done the research; I hold two master’s degrees in international business and management. And, it would be foolish to not learn about it and consider it, because huge opportunity costs could be attached to whatever you decide right now.

So, if you want to not miss out on organic growth and control, then click "Buy" to listen.

I needed this book!

I began with the bundle of which this book is a part of and wanted to leave a review here because it helped me so much.

As a new app developer and a novice in business management and strategy, I really needed this book. It helped and guided me through this popular, and yet novel business model. While it put me on the right path to ask the right questions and search for the right term to begin to design the business model for my app. I particularly enjoyed the scalability challenges inherent in this model and is something that I (hopefully) will have to address.

Anyone in a similar situation as me could honestly benefit from this book.
Would recommend!

The multi faceted platform business model

I was quite surprised to find out that the platform business model has been happening all the way back from the 1970s.

I particularly enjoyed listening to how the mass technology platforms have to adapt to deal with the volumes of customers and the challenges that this brings (S.O.Ps and regulations).

Scale growth is definitely a necessary tool to manage some platforms in use today.

Very interesting book with lots of information!
