Relationship among the various blocks
Business canvas model is defined as a strategic management tool that is used for both
the purpose of the documentation of an existing business as well as the development of the
new businesses (Barquet et al., 2013). This is generally a visual chart that consists of the
various elements that might help in the description of the various factors like the value
propositions, the customers, the finances and the infrastructure of the company (Joyce &
Paquin, 2016). The business canvas model might be used in order to analyze the conditions of
the business and thereby taking further steps for the improvement of the various matters
related to the concerned organization (De Reuver, Bouwman & Haaker, 2013). The business
canvas is used for bridging the various gaps that exist between the implemented processes in
the business and the various strategies that are used for the proper functioning of the
concerned business. There are nine building blocks in the business canvas model that are
related to each other and have been interdependent on each other (Fisk, 2014). The business
canvas model of the Tribe Digital (Australia) Pty Ltd is described in the following section.

Finances
Cost Structure – The cost structure of the concerned company deals with the various
costs that are incurred by the concerned organization in the process of continuing their
activities (Bocken et al., 2014). The company in discussion might incur costs for the hiring of
the various freelancers and the copywriters as the employees of the concern. The company
might also incur some amount of costs in the matters of the paid advertisements.
Revenue Streams – The revenue streams of the company refer to the in-flow of the
funds towards the company (DaSilva & Trkman, 2014). The company under discussion is
known to earn revenue in the form of a commission that it charges over the sale of any
advertisement. The services of the company are, however, free for the various influencers
who are a part of the company.
The various components of the business canvas model might assist in the delivery of
the values to the concerned clients of the company. The value proposition of the company
might help in differentiating the company from the other competitors of the same that have
been operating in the concerned industry (Mulcahy, 2013). The maintenance of the
relationship among the various clients of the company might lead to the expansion of the
same thereby leading to the positive effects on the revenue streams of the company.
Critical success factors of Tribe Digital
The critical success factors that are related to the company in discussion, Tribe Digital
(Australia) Pty Ltd, are the positive reviews that re shared by the clients of the concern. The

9BUSINESS MODEL CANVAS OF TRIBE DIGITAL
positive reviews of the concern might help them to be recognized on a larger scale and
thereby help in boosting the promotion of the concern (Moroni, Arruda & Araujo, 2015). The
succeeding factors associated with the concern might also lie in the quality of the work that
they deliver to the concerned clients of the concern.
Risks related to the operations of Tribe Digital
The major risks that are related to the concern are the matters that deal with the
lowering of the client base of the concern. The concern is a relatively young organization in
the market and thus might have to face a huge amount of threat from the competitors of the
organization (Weiblen & Chesbrough, 2015). The company also faces a threat in the matters
that pertain to the staff of the organization. The staff of the organization might stop working
with the company due to the various issues such as the low amount of the remuneration that
they receive in lieu of the efforts that they might put in. The company also faces a threat of
losing the influencers to the other similar organizations (Lazonick & Mazzucato, 2013).
Recommendation
In order to avoid the afore-mentioned circumstances, the company is advised to treat
all its employees in a better manner. The employees must be granted the proper payments and
must be motivated to work in favor of the growth of the company. The company is also
advised to motivate the workforce of the company to put in their best efforts towards the
company. The company might also be advised to expand from the current scenario which
might help in the reduction of the threat that it faces from the various competitors in the
market.
Conclusion
Thus, from the above discussion, it might safely be concluded that the relatively new
company in the industry needs to put in huge efforts in order to gain a strong foothold in the

10BUSINESS MODEL CANVAS OF TRIBE DIGITAL
Australian as well as the global markets. The company should look forward to the expansion
in the global markets in order to get a proper and steady inflow of funds that might help them
to progress further in the concerned industry.
