1.1 WHAT ARE THE MAIN COMPONENTS OF NETFLIX BSUINESS MODEL AND HOW THIS COMPONENT DRIVES ITS
OPERATION
A business model is a plan or framework that a company uses to generate revenue and make a profit. It outlines how the
company creates value for its customers, what products or services it offers, how it markets and sells those products or
services, and the methods it uses to deliver them. The business model also includes details on how the company manages costs
and resources to sustain its operations. In essence, it's a comprehensive blueprint for how a business operates and achieves its
financial goals (Osterwalder & Pigneur, 2010).
