Without agreeing or disagreeing - I have to run, so I can't think about it in depth - why are you interested in startup taxonomy? What do you hope to get from it?
Not meant to be negative in any way - I'm curious.
- bendtheblock 16y agoInitially, it was because I felt there was a series of underlying themes in all the startup strategies I hear about. Then I wondered about using this as a framework for searching out new startup opportunities (see my comment below). I also wondered if anyone else had already developed cohesive taxonomy like this.
- triviatise 16y agomodels can visually help you to find permutations that arent obvious at first. Think about a state table with states A - F. The state table helps you to examine all transitions even ones that may at first appear to be degenerate. If you separate monetization strategy from customer acquisition strategy from maybe something like market or medium you might find holes. monetization - ads, subscription, donations, one time fee customer acquisition - Im sure this has been done before, probably by mckinsey or HBR
