acknowledge its Key Activities. Key activities is a foundation to create and deliver

critical business value propositions, to maintain customer relationship, to access the

market, and acquire basic income.

products and services that together represent value for a specific customer segment. It

is a collection of products and services a business can offer to meet the needs of its

customers. According to Osterwalder (2010), a company's value proposition is what

distinguishes itself from its competitors. The value proposition provides value through

various elements such as newness, performance, customization, "getting the job done",

design, brand/status, price, cost reduction, risk reduction, accessibility and

convenience/usability.

The value propositions may be:

Quantitative- price and efficiency

Qualitative- overall customer experience and outcome

5. Customer Segments

To build an effective business model, a company must identify which customers it

tries to serve. Various sets of customers can be segmented based on the different needs

and attributes to ensure appropriate implementation of corporate strategy meets the

characteristics of selected group of clients.

The different types of customer segments include:

Mass Market: There is no specific segmentation for a company that follows the

Mass Market element as the organization displays a wide view of potential

clients.

Niche Market: Customer segmentation based on specialized needs and

characteristics of its clients.

Segmented: A company applies additional segmentation within existing

customer segment. In the segmented situation, the business may further

distinguish its clients based on gender, age, and/or income.

Diversify: A business serves multiple customer segments with different needs

and characteristics.

11

Multi-Sided Platform / Market: For a smooth day to day business operation,

some companies will serve mutually dependent customer segment. A credit card

company will provide services to credit card holders while simultaneously

assisting merchants who accept those credit cards.

6. Channels

A company can deliver its value proposition to its targeted customers through different

channels. Effective channels will distribute a company‟s value proposition in ways

that are fast, efficient and cost effective. An organization can reach its clients either

through its own channels (store front), partner channels (major distributors), or a

combination of both.

7. Customer Relationship:

To ensure the survival and success of any businesses, companies must identify the

type of relationship they want to create with their customer segments.

Various forms of customer relationships include:

Personal Assistance: Assistance in a form of employee-customer interaction.

Such assistance is performed either during sales, after sales, and/or both.

Dedicated Personal Assistance: The most intimate and hands on personal

assistance where a sales representative is assigned to handle all the needs and

questions of a special set of clients.

Self Service: The type of relationship that translates from the indirect

interaction between the company and the clients. Here, an organization provides

the tools needed for the customers to serve themselves easily and effectively.

Page 5: CHAPTER II THEORITICAL FRAMEWORKlibrary.binus.ac.id/eColls/eThesisdoc/Bab2/bab 2-ts-bmc...8 CHAPTER II THEORITICAL FRAMEWORK 2.1 Applied Theory 2.1.1 Business Model Canvas The definition

12

Automated Services: A system similar to self-service but more personalized as

it has the ability to identify individual customers and his/her preferences. An

example of this would be Amazon.com making book suggestion based on the

characteristics of the previous book purchased.

Communities: Creating a community allows for a direct interaction among

different clients and the company. The community platform produces a scenario

where knowledge can be shared and problems are solved between different

clients.

Co-creation: A personal relationship is created through the customer‟s direct

input in the final outcome of the company‟s products/services.

8. Cost Structure.

This describes the most important monetary consequences while operating under

different business models. Classes of Business Structures are divided into 2 which are:

Cost-Driven - This business model focuses on minimizing all costs and having

no frills.

Value-Driven - Less concerned with cost, this business model focuses on

creating value for their products and services.

There are 4 characteristics of Cost Structures that will be explained as follows:

Fixed Costs - Costs are unchanged across different applications. e.g. salary,

rent

Variable Costs - These costs vary depending on the amount of production of

goods or services.

Page 6: CHAPTER II THEORITICAL FRAMEWORKlibrary.binus.ac.id/eColls/eThesisdoc/Bab2/bab 2-ts-bmc...8 CHAPTER II THEORITICAL FRAMEWORK 2.1 Applied Theory 2.1.1 Business Model Canvas The definition

13

Economies of Scale - Costs go down as the amount of good are ordered or

produced.

Economies of Scope - Costs go down due to incorporating other businesses

which have a direct relation to the original product.

9. Revenue Streams.

Revenue streams can be generated from each customer segment with different pricing

strategy. There are 2 pricing strategies of Revenue Stream, fixed and dynamic.

There are two different types of Revenue Streams that can be involved in a business

model canvas (Osterwalder and Pigneur, 2010):

Transaction revenues with one-time customer payments,

Recurring revenues caused by ongoing payments to deliver, the values to

customer or for the after sales support.

2.1.2 TOWS analysis

TOWS analysis is a variant of the classic business tool, SWOT analysis. TOWS and

SWOT are acronyms for different arrangement of the words Strength, Weakness,

Opportunity, and Threats. To differentiate between SWOT and TOWS is by how the

analyze it, by TOWS, they should see the external environment (threats and

opportunity) first then internal environment (weakness and strengths), and this can be

used as a technique to think about the strategy of the whole organization, department

or team. In order to invent a new product or business, can be seen on what is the threat

that happening in that industry and form that what are the opportunities, and then

match.

2.1.5 Porter Five Forces Analysis

Porter five forces analysis is a framework to analyse level of competition within the

industry and develop business strategy afterwards. Porter five forces analysis draws

upon industrial organization economics to derive five forces that determine the

competitive intensity and therefore attractiveness of a market.

2.1.6 Porter’s Generic Strategies

According to Michael Porter, there are three strategies that a company can pursued in

terms of their competitive advantage to choose its market scope such as lower cost,

differentiated, and focus. It was also stated that a company could only chose one of the

Page 9: CHAPTER II THEORITICAL FRAMEWORKlibrary.binus.ac.id/eColls/eThesisdoc/Bab2/bab 2-ts-bmc...8 CHAPTER II THEORITICAL FRAMEWORK 2.1 Applied Theory 2.1.1 Business Model Canvas The definition

three or the business would waste precious resources. Porter‟s generic strategies detail

the interaction between cost minimization strategies, product differentiation strategies,

and market focus strategies.

Figure 2.2 Porter‟s Generic Strategies

2.1.7 Product Life Cycle

Product life cycle is a business analysis that is commonly used to describe the life of a

product over time. It is also a tool used to map the lifespan of the product and also a

tool to identify a set of common stages in the life of commercial products. According

to Philip Kotler (2006), Product life cycle consists of five distinct phases such as:

1. Product development. Product development is a phase when a company is

starting to look for a new product by doing a market research to identify

customers‟ needs. It is a phase where the new product is being tested and a

prototype is developed.

Page 10: CHAPTER II THEORITICAL FRAMEWORKlibrary.binus.ac.id/eColls/eThesisdoc/Bab2/bab 2-ts-bmc...8 CHAPTER II THEORITICAL FRAMEWORK 2.1 Applied Theory 2.1.1 Business Model Canvas The definition

17

2. Product Introduction. Product introduction is a phase where the first product

that has been developed being introduced to the market. This phase is full of

risks and uncertainties as the sales will be low and profits are low or none. At

this phase, the product needed a high activity in promotion.

3. Growth. This is the phase where the product is already being accepted in the

market. By this time, the company has already start to recoup the costs of the

first two phases

4. Maturity. At this phase, the product has already been widely accepted to the

public and the growth of the product will slow down. This phase will also be

the phase where company faced a pressure from other competitors.

5. Decline. A product market will eventually start to shrink due to a saturated

product market or switching customer to a different type of product. This phase

may be inevitable but could still be possible for the company to make some

profits by switching to a less expensive production methods or cheaper market.

2.1.8 Relationship Marketing Concept

Relationship marketing is changing the way marketers use traditional media channels

to build brand image and awareness. Marketers are not just re-allocating ad the budget

between existing media products, they are taking advantage of whole new set of media

choices. The aim is to build relationship instead of a one-time sale, which is termed as

a transaction. Relationship marketing centers are developing an on-going relationship

with customers related the products and services. Its purpose is to build a long-term

bond between the business there are and customer.

Page 11: CHAPTER II THEORITICAL FRAMEWORKlibrary.binus.ac.id/eColls/eThesisdoc/Bab2/bab 2-ts-bmc...8 CHAPTER II THEORITICAL FRAMEWORK 2.1 Applied Theory 2.1.1 Business Model Canvas The definition

18

Relationship Marketing views marketing as an exchange where both buyers and sellers

help shape the direction and outcome of the product that will be offered to the market.

Instead of treating marketing as merely selling a product to passive potential buyers,

relationship marketing argues that you need to encompass many more activities and

parties in the marketing process, including consumers.

2.1.9 Customer Bonding

Customer loyalty is a development of personal relationship between customer and a

company that will happen over time. This development of customer relationship

includes keeping customers involved throughout product lifecycle as well as

developing products and services to meet customer needs. According to Richard Cross

(1996), there are five important aspects of customer bonding in order to create an

effective one on one communication and mutually beneficial interaction between a

company and customers such as:

1. Awareness. This is an aspect where company needs to earn customers‟ insight

of their products including creating an impression of personal identification

with the company‟s products. One of the effective ways from the company to

gain customers awareness during this aspect is by having a good advertising

promotion to capture customers‟ attention. Any reaction from customers

cannot yet be determined from this stage.

2. Identity. A customer identifies company‟s product according to their needs

such as status, belonging, or even self-fulfilment. By creating an identity that

could relate to customer‟s personal preferences, it could help company to start

forming a relationship with the customers.

19

3. Relationship. In the relationship stage, customers already received a benefit

through the company‟s product and therefore investing energy and time In a

relationship with the company that leads them to loyalty and trust within the

company‟s products.

4. Community. A high level of effective interaction is required in order to create

customer bonding, even more when customer‟s lifestyle and personal

preferences has already been integrated through the company‟s products. At

this stage of the bonding process, company has achieved a loyalty value from

the customers and therefore are required to give a constant delight to the

customers.

5. Advocacy. This is an advance stage of the customer bonding where company

has served their customer as an advocate. At this stage, the customer shows a

loyalty to the company by starting to promote their products through word of

mouth advertisement.

2.6 Idea Generation

According to Johnson (2005, p613), Idea Generation or Ideation is a creative process

of generating, developing, and communicating new ideas where an idea is understood

as a basic element of thought that can be either visual, concrete, or abstract. Based on

the business idea of making a high heeled shoe which heels can be remove and

adjusted to the height the customer‟s desired, Removels came up to a conclusion that

the problem which started the business idea is the comfort a high heeled shoes can

give to women. A pair of high heeled shoes has been a good friend of women since a

long time ago. Wearing heels is an evergreen style statement. Some of the reasons as

of why women use heels are to make them look tall, to complement their clothes, to

make their body posture look good, to make their legs look longer, and the main

reason is to following the trends. Nowadays, the impact of high heel shoes on

women‟s fashion is enormous since there are an issues of comfort and health with

these shoes.

Therefore, Removels develop shoes with detachable heels that can be easily removed

to adjust the height of the heeled at the discretion of the women using. This

innovation of detachable heels is also a unique selling point in Indonesian market

because there is no shoe store that has sell shoes with detachable heels before. Local

brands have started to show their competition in shoemaking industry in Indonesia

especially for woman shoes. It has potential considering the supporting factors of labor

and shoe materials that are available in every part of the country such as Bandung and

Tangerang.

Based on a survey conducted by Gramedia Group and IPSOS in 2013, it was stated

that Indonesian market, especially women, have the tendency to explore and try new

and innovative things. Thus, the entrepreneur must be able to maintain access to the

existing markets and taking advantage of any opportunities that arise. In addition, the

entrepreneur must be proactive in every detail they desire to be able to grow their

business and succeed in the industry.
