As mobile applications increase in popularity, the issue of how to build viable business models for the m-commerce industry is becoming a clear priority for both organizations and researchers. In order to address this issue, this chapter reports on five mini cases used as a guideline, and applies the theoretical business model from Chesbrough and Rosenbloom (2002) to each of them to find out the most important components of viable business models for their m-commerce applications. The study then uses cross cases analysis as a research tool to compare and contrast each of the mini cases and to find out how the different organizations fit within the researched theoretical business model. Finally, this chapter confirms that there are 7 important components of viable business models for m-commerce which are: value proposition, market segment, value chain, profit potential, value network, competitive strategy and firm capabilities. This study also highlights the fact that the public visibility of these 7 components is uneven. Some components such as value proposition, value chain, value network and firm’s capabilities are more likely to be presented in public by organizations. However, aspects such as cost structure and profit potential, market segment and competitive strategy are more likely to be hidden from the public due to their commercial sensitivity.


The business model and the value activities are able to play a significant role in the development of the strategic plan and risk assessment for the organisation. The importance of these concepts and the separate role each needs to play is discussed. The good business model is an important tool for managers to analyse strategic choices and select the strategies they feel appropriate to develop the organisation for future advantage and to set the business into a more effective direction. However, the definitions for a business model cover a range of complexity: from a simple definition covering the customer and product, to a complex definition covering most of the business organisation. The value proposition is examined as a systematic way of examining the activities a firm performs and how they interact. The various value models: from value chain to value net, are reviewed and replaced with the term value architecture to give a broader view of the value concept. An architecture is proposed for defining the structure of the value activities and their inter-relationships which can provide an underpinning of information for the business model. This would remove many complexities from the model and make the model easier to review, validate and implement.

The adoption of omnichannel strategies by luxury fashion brands has a relevant impact on the whole value chain and generates many critical organizational implications for luxury companies. The reluctance of several fashion brands in adopting omnichannel initiatives might be related the uniqueness of luxury fashion value proposition, strongly related to rich storytelling and memorable experiences and on the need of large organisation redesign that involve collection design, physical retail role and functions, service design and inventory and supply chain management. There is no common approach to such topics within luxury fashion companies a present but it is possible to draw a sort of “ominchannel adoption curve or life cycle”, with the different evolutionary stages in which companies might be at present. These different stages are characterised by different goals for omnichannel, different level of integration between digital and traditional retail, information generation and sharing and function goals and competencies.

Purpose This paper aims to investigate how pharmacies communicate their customer value proposition (CVP) in a complex and multiple-stakeholder setting. More specifically, from the pharmacists’ perspective, the study analyzes how CVP is articulated in complex settings/offerings and among multiple stakeholders; and elucidates the communication gap among stakeholders of the CVP. Design/methodology/approach Two studies were conducted to examine how offerings are communicated throughout the value chain. Through six in-depth interviews, Study 1 aimed to analyze how pharmacies articulate CVP for over-the-counter (OTC) drugs in a complex business-to-business-to-consumer setting. For Study 2, the data were collected from 113 French pharmacists to investigate the communication issues and to unveil the tools used to promote OTC drugs among the different stakeholders. Findings From the pharmacists’ perspective, the longer the chain, the more complex the efficiency of the CVP. This study conceives a new and adapted CVP as iterative and cumulative. This paper also highlights how value is distributed across the customer relationship in a complex and regulated industry. The findings feature a reciprocal perspective of CVP between the pharmaceutical labs and their direct/indirect customers. Final customers aim at creating a reciprocal approach with the different stakeholders. Pharmacists use a unidirectional perspective of CVP with their direct customers (patients/final customers). Originality/value The study contributes to a better understanding of the CVP in complex industries characterized by a chain of value distributed among multiple stakeholders (i.e. business-to-consumer and business-to-business). The article also enriches past research that analyzed the way firms communicate their offerings from a CVP perspective.

SMEs could communicate its value propositions and inform their service through its official websites and other social media. Since the intangible resources include brand and design, thus SMEs should build brand image and innovate year by year. SMEs must hire designers and launch a series of new products offers under the signature of their own brands. Ideation to strengthen strategies derives from value proposition building block as a starting point. Moreover, Business Model Canvas makes strategy more focused and measurable.

This paper proposes a framework for identification of business models in smallholder cattle production and marketing that represents innovation behaviour. Cattle are vital to Indonesia’s smallholders’ livelihoods, and smallholder systems are key to serving the country’s growing demand for beef. Business incentives currently select against the development and sustainability of breeding systems which would support domestic production, and so new models are needed which utilize innovation. The three primary components of a business model are presented: its value proposition, its value architecture, and its financing mechanism. A research approach is provided, by way of mapping data needs to the business models, and proposing relationships between observed innovation practices and the business models within the value chain. For implementation, the paper provides guidance on facilitation needs and the role of stakeholders in the case of the Indonesian cattle and beef value chain.
