I started using this compressed / simplified model to test ideas. I now use it at all times in all of my businesses.
To be clear, this isn't a proper model.
Proper models are complex, fragile, and hard to visualize.
This is a simple one page draft.
It's quick to build and allows full visualization.
This can be done in as short as 1hr, allowing quick testing of ideas.
It then can serve as a reference for your proper model build.
