In essence, the business model explains how the firms will generate the income or money. The importance of having a business model becomes crucial since current studies initiated that the business model design of a firm is significantly related to firm's performance. Thus, it is very useful for current and future entrepreneurs to have a practical business model for their ventures in order to help them to do well in the competitive business environment.
