Evaluating Business Models

Groupon’s re-evaluation of going public has many professionals wondering if that could spell doom for other internet-based businesses.  Rita McGrath, who was of the opinion that Groupon would fail, wrote a great article on how Groupon’s troubles should not be grouped in with all internet-based models.  Rita broke down how another internet-based business model, Angie’ List, compared to Groupon’s through the use of a seven point scale to base models.  On this episode of TPN Finance, we discuss how businesses can utilize the scale by showing how Angie’s list business model fits into the scale.
