Business Model for Rural Nepal ...

1. A Pay-Per-Use approach in which consumers pay lower costs for each use of a group-owned facility, product, or service. This limits the impact on their cash flow while the sheer numbers of consumers makes the proposition sufficiently attractive for thirdparty providers.
2. A pared-down, No Frills service that meets the basic needs of the poor at ultra-low prices and still generates positive cash flow and profits through high volume, high asset utilization, and service specialization.
3. Paraskilling, which combines No Frills services with a reengineering of complex services and processes into a set of disaggregated simple standardized tasks that can be undertaken by workers without specialized qualification.
4. Distribution networks that reach into remote markets via Shared Channels, piggybacking products and services through existing customer supply chains, thus enabling poor people to afford and gain access to socially beneficial goods
5. A system of Contract Production that directly involves small-scale farmers or producers in rural supply chains. The contractor organizes the supply chain from the top, provides critical inputs specifications, training, and credit to its suppliers, and the supplier provides assured quantities of specialty produce at fair and guaranteed prices.
6. A variety of Deep Procurement setups that bypass traditional middlemen and reach into the base of the economic pyramid, enabling direct purchases from large networks of low-income producers and farmers in rural markets and often providing training for quality and other specifications.
7. Demand-Led Training that applies a formal-sector “temp agency” model to down-market opportunities, with enterprises paying a third-party to identify, train, and place employees for job openings at the edges of the formal and informal sectors. Click Here to read more (Source:Monitor Group)
