Pivoting On Your Business Model

Media_httpfreelancesw_iefkt

Hmmm, pivoting on your business model. That sounds like the name of a new band. Does it have videos online? Where’s its ReverbNation page?

Before this fun-loving line of reasoning goes any further, let me bring you back down to reality. Pivoting on your business model is a hot topic in startup circles. It’s what you’re forced to do when your business runs into trouble.

Maybe the customers aren’t buying what you went into business to sell. Or the tastes of the public have changed. What you were offering five years ago just doesn’t have the same appeal. And the result is showing up on your financial statements – in red ink.

There's A War Inside Apple Over The Direction Of Its Design

Media_httpstatic4busi_bbfgj

Apple is known for its great design, but inside the company, there is a growing divide over the direction of its software design, Austin Carr at Fast Company reports.

Carr says the evolution of Apple's software design, which continues to emphasize skeuomorphic design, is causing embarrassment within the company.

Skeuomorphic design is a fancy way of describing when Apple replicates physical products with its software designs. For instance, when you use Apple's "notes" app, it looks like a fake legal pad. When you look at the Newsstand app, it has fake wooden shelves.

Netflix details new strategy: become HBO

Media_httpcdn2digital_rectc

Netflix CEO Reed Hastings has sent out a letter to investors detailing the company's new strategy, which sounds very similar to one of its rivals: HBO.

When you’ve just become the top movie subscription service in the world, you don’t raise rates without explanation. That comes off as greedy. And if you’re going to apologize for that mistake, try not to announce that you’re splitting your company in half and renaming half of it Qwikster. These actions will lead to 800,000 subscribers jumping ship and send your stock price tumbling from more than $300 a share to about $87 bucks in a couple months.
