Key Activities

The Key Activities describe the most important things a company must do to make its business model work. They can be activities to create and offer Value Propositions, reach markets, maintain Customer Relationships, and earn revenues. These are the activities that you need to perform well because they are essential to operating your business. The more resource-intensive the production of the value proposition, the more comprehensive the channels, the more personal the customer relationships, the longer the list of activities will be.

Key Partnerships

The Key Partnerships describes the network of suppliers and partners that make a business model work. These are institutions or individuals that have resources that you don’t have or that perform activities better, faster or cheaper than you. Partnerships can generally be categorised into: strategic alliances between non-competitors, strategic partnership between competitors, joint ventures to develop new businesses, and buyer-supplier relationships. The importance of forming partnerships is evident, but partnership management also requires time, so only create partnerships that clearly add value to your business model.

Key Resources

The Key Resources describes the most important assets within a company that make a business model work. These generally include physical resources (e.g. buildings, vehicles, etc.), intellectual resources (e.g. brands, partnerships, proprietary knowledge, etc.), human resources (e.g. employees), and financial resources (e.g. cash, lines of credit, etc.). Decide which resources you absolutely need to own (in-house resources) and which ones can be rented or used by building strategic partnerships. The less in-house resources are needed, the lower the investment costs will be.
