Advanced yet simple to use Excel Spreadsheet for Business Model calculations

Hi BM experts!

I am thinking of creating an advanced yet simple to use (Excel) spreadsheet to do Business Model calculations. Something as easy to use as the BMG iPad app, but then in a spreadsheet you can use on your desktop. And with more advanced features and customizable by you if needed.

I have looked at the great spreadsheets people have already created and shared on Business Model Hub. These all are very advanced (and complex) and serve a specific need. I have not yet seen a "don't make me think" kind of spreadsheet that would be as forward to use as the BMC and the iPad app.

Would you be interested in a spreadsheet like that to do your business model calculations?

And would you be willing to pay a small amount to use the spreadsheet?

I have a lot of experience creating business case spreadsheets and financial benchmark models, also to be used by people who do not have the amount of expertise I (and you) have.

Thank you for your reply! (both positive and negative!)

Best regards,

Diderik

Hi Diderik:

Do you know if it is possible to use the Business Model Toolbox (BMT) on a PC other than an iPad application?

Regards,

Marcelo

Hi Marcelo,

As far as I know the BMT is for iPad only. Which is a pity, I believe. That is the reason I started creating this Excel sheet back then.

Best regards,

Diderik

Diderik is correct, the BMToolbox works only on the iPad. Alex and company are currently working on a web-based tool that will hopefully be released later this year.
