Overview

You are excited to see the possibilities after finishing the Business  Model Canvas Template. The next step is the development of the BMC  slide deck for review by the experienced former project manager  mentioned in the Module Four assignment.

Scenario

In the BMC slide deck, you will make educated assumptions (based on  research in Marketline, Yahoo Finance, or the company’s website) about  your selected company’s resources, partnerships, cost structures (what  needs to be paid for), how the product or service will be marketed,  value delivery (product sold online, in-store, or both), and the unique  value proposition for a specific targeted market segment.

All 9 segments of your redeveloped BMC must encompass elements to achieve new product/service feasibility.

Beyond profitability, other key elements that the experienced project  manager stressed were diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI), as well  as corporate social responsibility (CSR). In the marketplace, companies  that have diverse project teams get varied perspectives that help the  overall project. Just as important, companies that “give back” to the  communities they serve do better and are supported by millennial  buyers—a big target segment for many companies.

Financials, DEI, and CSR must be addressed in the funding pitch,  which you will complete as your course project, due in Module Seven.

Prompt
