Business Model Design Program
Stress-test your business ideas before getting outside the building
BMD program teaches you to deconstruct your business idea in a 1-pager Lean Canvas and stress-test it for desirability, viability, and feasibility.
A working business model = A successful product.
Investors today don’t fund solutions that work;they fund business models that work. Being able to communicate your idea clearly&concisely to your key stakeholders is critically important in order to gain their buy-in. Pitching is a key skill all entrepreneurs need to learn. You don't just pitch for investment. You pitch to acquire customers, co-founders, & advisors.

The good news is that, much like building a product, you can take a systematic approach to building out your business model. It starts with laying out a solid business model design blueprint.
A business model design blueprint helps you deconstruct your idea into a set of key assumptions (captured on a 1-page Lean Canvas), from where you prioritize your riskiest assumptions and formulate a stage-based validation strategy for bringing your idea to life.
This workshop shows you how.

Program Structure
In BMD, you learn by doing. The program is delivered over four online workshops (2 hours each) that run weekly over 30 days. These workshops teach you the latest techniques for designing a bullet-proof business model. In between workshop sessions, you'll get to apply everything you learn using a battle-tested curriculum and online business modeling tools. At the end of the program, a Leantersect coach will review your business model with you and share feedback in a private coaching session.
Program Agenda
WEEK 1:
Continuous Innovation Framework
What separates successful entrepreneurs isn't differing skill sets, but differing mindsets. In this workshop, you'll learn the key mindsets and strategies for building the next generation of products that matter.
WEEK 2:
Stress Test Your Idea For Desirability
As entrepreneurs, we are charged with building better products, but what does better even mean? This is the million (or billion) dollar question that we'll cover in this workshop.
WEEK 3:
Stress Test Your Idea For Viability
Too many entrepreneurs rush outside the building with a product only to find out months later that they are chasing too small an idea. In this workshop, you'll learn how to test whether your idea is worth pursuing in 5 minutes versus 5 months.
WEEK 4:
Stress Test Your Idea For Feasibility
In this workshop, you'll learn how to formulate a stage-based product launch and validation strategy using battle-tested recipes.
BONUS
Coaching session: Business model diagnostic
At the end of the program, you'll get live feedback from a LEANSTACK certified coach on your business model, validation strategy, and immediate next steps for moving your idea forward.
