To have a successful business and save a lot of heart ache, you need a business model.

Many plant-based small businesses started organically. With the growth of the vegan market, there is more competition and so much more opportunities.

This one-day virtual workshop and online learning experience covers the essentials of building business models using the business model canvas developed by Strategyzer and based on the bestselling book Business Model Generation by Alexander Osterwalder.

Who is it for?

Anyone in the plant-based space, whether you are looking to:

Improve your current business or
Create a new revenue channel for an existing business or
Evaluate different business ideas for a new business

In this workshop, we will do a deep dive on the business model canvas to help you flesh out yours ideas by mapping your customer segments and value propositions you offer, the channels you will use to reach your customers, the relationships you will maintain with them, the key resources, activities and partners you will need to deliver on your plan along with the cost and revenue generation models.

This is a hands-on training workshop where we learn by doing using your own products or services as well as using case studies from leading organizations like Apple, Amazon, Tesla, Airbnb, McDonalds and others.

You will leave this workshop with a solid understanding of how all the components of the business model canvas and value proposition canvas relate to each other and the skills needed to start applying on your own business.

Testimonials from Previous Purpose With Profit Events

The event was great! I felt uplifted afterwards. The networking & presentation showed new possibilities - vegan businesses need to get a move on! Vegan businesses can be so supportive, we just need to reach out and connect! This event provided opportunities for future collaborations.

Amanda - The Kynd Kitchen

The event gave us a chance to connect with vegan businesses that we would not otherwise have been able to. Pressing questions are also answered by Bob and other business founders in a welcoming environment. Also, a note about Bob’s events, he has a way of driving engagement amongst a group. We valued the complementary events he put on through Covid-19, where many businesses collaborated and shared ideas in an online discussion forum.
