Understanding Disruptive Innovation
Disruptive innovation simplifies and makes expensive products more accessible, creating new market opportunities. This approach transforms complex technologies into user-friendly solutions, enabling a broader consumer base to access previously costly products. The innovation hinges on a combination of technology advancement and a viable business model to effectively deliver the solution.
Developing a New Business Model
Creating a successful business model starts with a clear value proposition designed to help customers achieve their objectives more affordably and effectively. This proposition forms the core of the model. Subsequently, defining a profit formula that aligns with the value proposition is key to sustaining the business. Allocation of resources and establishment of cohesive processes further solidify the innovative business model.
Overcoming Business Model Inertia
The inertia to adopt a new business model often stems from a financial analysis perspective that prioritizes marginal costs over total expenses. Established companies tend to lean towards leveraging existing frameworks rather than investing in transformative business models. However, true growth arises from disruptive business model innovation, exemplified by shifts in industries such as newspapers facing revenue challenges due to online disruptions.
The theory of disruptive innovation endures as a way to make a complicated and expensive product simpler and more affordable. But the originator of disruptive innovation argued that disruptive innovation isn’t just about simplifying technology — it also requires a new business model.
