Hey guys,<p>I was thinking the other day that I would love to read a book that was essentially a catalogue of all known business models (not just web startups) with examples and discussion.<p>I was reminded again by this post on the web startup business model wiki: http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=648223<p>Does anyone have a recommendation along these lines?<p>Cheers
I just started a community wiki with the same idea but inverted; it's a catalog of known successful startups and their business models: <a href="http://bizmodels.wikidot.com/" rel="nofollow">http://bizmodels.wikidot.com/</a><p>So it starts with the examples instead of starting with the business models. Maybe a catalog as you wish could be accomplished tagging the corresponding startup wiki pages with "ad-supported", "freemium", "license software", etc., and then navigating each tag to find examples.<p>Feel free to modify the wiki to enter wiki pages for business models themselves.
