Mapping the Path from Idea to Revenue

Idea to Revenue Workbook This playbook helps you:

  • Define and understand yourself, your competencies, your product, and your customer.
  • Identify your immediate, mid-term, and long term goals as well as an action plan to reach them
  • Clarify and clearly state your business model and path to revenue

Each key concept is presented in a tight, one-page question-and-answer format. This is not about writing volumes and analyzing things that will change tomorrow. It’s about building an actionable plan today. We ask questions and you jot down ideas. Together we refine your ideas, examine your options, and develop your plan for success.

The workbooks (printed and on-line workspace) are available as part of a workshop and/or a consulting arrangement.
