Up to now, quite few research essays talk about this field in Taiwan, so it lacks an applicable analytical structure to help the related industries develop the business.

Through the comparison among cases by case studying with UCCT Model, this study found the business model of Web2.0 cyber sites have the following attribute. First, users play the role of the producer and also the consumer. Second, sharing fails to be the main purpose for users. Third, abundant and various contents could make websites be main databases. Fourth, websites could enrich users¡¦ experiences to enhance their involvement. Fifth, websites could fortify the stickiness with community relationship.

Dynamics of business models - strategizing, critical capabilities and activities for sustained value creation

Achtenhagen, Leona, Melin, Leif, Naldi, Lucia January 2013 (has links)
Much progress has been made recently in developing the business model concept. However, one issue remains poorly understood, despite its importance for managers, policy makers, and academics alike, namely, how companies change and develop their business models to achieve sustained value creation. Companies which manage to create value over extended periods of time successfully shape, adapt and renew their business models to fuel such value creation. Drawing on findings from a research program on continuously growing firms, this paper identifies three critical capabilities, namely an orientation towards experimenting with and exploiting new business opportunities; a balanced use of resources; as well as achieving coherence between leadership, culture, and employee commitment, together shaping key strategizing actions. Moreover, we illustrate how each of these capabilities is supported by different sets of specific activities. Jointly, these three capabilities, their activities and the strategizing actions act as complementarities for value creation. We conclude the paper by suggesting implications for research and practitioners, providing a tool for managers which allows them to reflect on and identify critical issues relevant for changing and developing their business model to sustain value creation.

Service for Free to Service for Fee : Implications derived from Service Infusion

Törnros, Dennis January 2013 (has links)
The concept service infusion implies that services are being included in a product-centric business to some extent. This movement towards integrating services will change how the business is performed in such a company; in other words, service infusion will lead to changes in the business model. This thesis aims to describe how service infusion affects the business in general and more specific effects in the business model. Volvo Trucks are somewhere in the process of service infusion and have several services offered to the market, such as Dynafleet, fuel advice, and driver training. In 2008, the service driver training was launched on the Romanian market and Volvo Trucks struggled with selling the service for a fee. This led to Volvo Trucks making the decision to start giving away the service for free. The objective of the service driver training was from the begging to sell it for a fee and the transition from service for free to service for fee is the main focus in this thesis. Through an analysis of the theoretical framework chosen for this thesis and a case study performed on Volvo Trucks, four success factors for the transition from free to fee could be identified: deep understanding of customers, show the value of the service, introduce sales commissions, and develop a pricing strategy. All these success factors are chosen to ease the transition from a service for free into a service for fee.
