business models
Abhijit Anand Prabhudan

Branding and identity
• Separate brands or interfaces for b2b and b2c
• Let's call them cataloghub and catalogforge
• Each has its USP and market focus clearly
defined
Premises
• Long term business perspective
• Not burning money
• Being profitable
• Steady market growth
• Scalable back-end processes
What analysts have written in
media
• Exclusive & differentiated product categories
found to be more profitable
• Marketplace model found to be more
profitable
• Long tail dominated by few blockbuster
products
• Focusing on niche market is beneficial in face
of giants
Catalog building
• Highly selective merchandise
• Carefully curated merchandise
• No race to list everything in order to show
maximum numbers of products in different
categories
Prudent pricing
• No unsustainable discounts or mark-off
• Include aspects of crowd funding to assess
demand for selected products
Metrics
• Depending on model, TAM, CAC, LTV, ARPU,
GMV, GTV, cash conversion cycle, operating
cycle, inventory conversion, receivables
conversion besides others are measured in
dashboard but One Metric That Matters
OMTM approach outlined in Lean Analytics is
desirable
Employee value proposition
• Striving for better work-life balance for
employees
• Leveraging automation for warehousing and
logistics operations
• Holacracy model is desirable?
Future potential of blockchain
• Granular accounting and unprecedented
accuracy in tracking under supply chain
management by use of blockchain
• Far better tracking of contract production,
supplies, sellers, warehousing, logistics & CRM
activities
SMEs should focus on?
• Intermediary models are replicable
• Business model imitation is more relevant
than business model innovation in Indian
context?
Open source software
• Most technology infrastructure can be based
on open source software
• Software like Akeneo, Pimcore, Drupal
commerce and Magento
• But simplicity and intuitive UX of Microweber
stands out
Conclusion
• This slide deck is my attempt to sense
ecommerce platform business models
• I am Abhijit Anand Prabhudan
