How it works

  1. Fill the nine blocks

    Start on the customer side, with segments and value, then work towards costs and partners. Add as many sticky notes as you need.

  2. Flag your assumptions

    Mark any note you have not yet tested, so you can see what still needs validating.

Where sales fits

Most business models stall on the same three questions: who buys, how they find you and how you win them. That customer side is where I help founders build a sales system that runs without them.

Questions about the Business Model Canvas

Yes. Filling in the canvas is free, and so is downloading it as a PDF or image. We ask for your details so that we can send you a copy and, if it is useful, follow up on your sales questions.

Your notes are saved in your browser on this device, so you can come back and continue. Sales Fundas receives your canvas only if you submit the form to download it or receive a copy.

Use the Business Model Canvas when the business already exists and you want to map how it creates, delivers and earns value. Use the Lean Canvas when the idea is still a guess and you want to test the riskiest assumptions first.
