Portfolio queries by https://padlet.com/jameson_gill/mdyq3c7r7j7k Post assignment queries here en-us 2019-04-05 14:35:15 UTC 2019-04-12 09:53:06 UTC hello@padlet.com I'm currently up to the part of Key Partnerships, i need to know if you want us to state the companies in which we intend to partner or just the reason behind it, for example joint ventures and optimization and economy of scale. https://padlet.com/jameson_gill/mdyq3c7r7j7k/wish/349249526 2019-04-07 14:08:38 UTC https://padlet.com/jameson_gill/mdyq3c7r7j7k/wish/349249526 For the word count, does it have to be exactly 4,000 words? https://padlet.com/jameson_gill/mdyq3c7r7j7k/wish/349391052 2019-04-08 07:52:03 UTC https://padlet.com/jameson_gill/mdyq3c7r7j7k/wish/349391052 Re-guarding the word count, it states a maximum of 4,000 words. https://padlet.com/jameson_gill/mdyq3c7r7j7k/wish/349395883 2019-04-08 08:16:48 UTC https://padlet.com/jameson_gill/mdyq3c7r7j7k/wish/349395883 4000 words is the maximum you can include in your learning portfolio so you are not expected to include exactly 4000. Howeverake use if the available word count to provide evidence that you have achieved the assessment criteria. Words in the reference list, models and properly used tables are not included in the word count. https://padlet.com/jameson_gill/mdyq3c7r7j7k/wish/349505915 Regards

However, it is fine to describe the profile of a partner in terms of what you need for your business model. You should also include this detail for a named partner along with all the rationale for specific partnering decisions. https://padlet.com/jameson_gill/mdyq3c7r7j7k/wish/349509235

I have already used Osterwalder et al and Kim and Morborgne, are we expected to use any other sources besides these to discuss. If so what other sources do you suggest as I am struggling to find any relevant to the business model on the online resource list.]]> 2019-04-09 15:18:21 UTC https://padlet.com/jameson_gill/mdyq3c7r7j7k/wish/349982090 Do we have to include the buyer utility in log 1 or log 2? https://padlet.com/jameson_gill/mdyq3c7r7j7k/wish/350256120 2019-04-10 08:20:22 UTC https://padlet.com/jameson_gill/mdyq3c7r7j7k/wish/350256120 https://padlet.com/jameson_gill/mdyq3c7r7j7k/wish/350462529 If you have already started to mention certain aspects for Log 2 in Log 1 that are appropriate does it matter how the word count is spread over the two logs (i.e. could the logs be more equally weighted if they are interlinked throughout both?) as I am currently referring back to Log 1 in Log 2 for aspects already mentioned?]]> 2019-04-10 17:12:24 UTC https://padlet.com/jameson_gill/mdyq3c7r7j7k/wish/350462529 In terms of writing a literature informed account of your business model in log 2, you can draw on any theory which you think you can usefully use to generate your ideas and support you decisions. https://padlet.com/jameson_gill/mdyq3c7r7j7k/wish/350668343 Drawing on the module reading list is an important start but, I we have said in the taught sessions, many other potential areas of theory are implied, eg relationship marketing, channel management, segmentation. This approach is described in the wider brief of the project task and reflected in the assessment criteria.

This is because we have talked about developing the value innovation described in your poster presentation into a more concrete value proposition for the business model. The utility generation templates relate to the value proposition of the business model. However, there is some interchangeability of terms here. Don't get too bogged down in simply trying to say the write words in the write places. Write good logs which evidence the assessment criteria.

However, logs 1 and 2 are designed to reflect a stage of progression in your project which it is useful to recognise. The connection is that in log 1 you are focusing on challenging red ocean assumptions and trying to demonstrate that you can identify uncontested market space (Blue Ocean). The move to log 2 can be used to show how you take this somewhat abstracted view of a new market and initial new product/service proposal and turn it into a more concrete market proposition which can be made a reality for consumers by way of a well considered business model.

The key thing, however, is to clearly show evidence for the assessment criteria somewhere in the word count. During marking we will look for the evidence. Try to make it easy to find.

Jameson

It has shown "processing" all the time and resubmitted again, it still be "processing". Will be there any problem about submission?]]> 2019-04-12 08:54:08 UTC https://padlet.com/jameson_gill/mdyq3c7r7j7k/wish/351080045 Turnitin Reports https://padlet.com/jameson_gill/mdyq3c7r7j7k/wish/351087967 It can take some time for Turnitin to generate similarity reports. As long as you have made a proper submission to Turnitin before the deadline then it won't matter if the report is generated later. Of course, remember to submit to all the submission points. by the deadline. I can see that just one submission is awaiting the report as I write this message. You, or anyone else, can email me to ask about your own case if needs be.
