Fully Editable & Customizable
Every section is editable in both Word and Excel so you can tailor language, financial assumptions, and layout to your course catalog, pricing tiers, and go-to-market plan.
Structured & Easy-to-Use Layout
The canvas uses a clear, logical layout that separates the nine key blocks for online courses-Customer Segments, Value Propositions, Channels, Revenue, Costs, and more-making it easy to fill and review.
Revenue & Cost Analysis
Template sections help list tiered subscription revenues, one-time certification fees, and key cost lines like instructor payments, platform hosting, and marketing-so you can model unit economics and pricing strategies.
Customer & Market Segmentation
The canvas guides you to define primary customer groups-working professionals, career changers, recent grads, freelancers-and to map needs, willingness to pay, and channel preferences for each segment.
Key Partnerships & Resources Mapping
Sections prompt you to identify instructors, tech providers, certification bodies, and corporate partners needed to build content, deliver learning, and drive B2B sales-so partnerships align with operations and growth.
One-Page Business Model Overview
The Excel snapshot condenses the full model to one page for quick reviews and investor pitches, while the Word file provides the narrative detail behind each block.
Time-Saving Business Planning Tool
This template removes formatting work so you can focus on strategy, user interviews, and course validation-saving hours compared with building a canvas from scratch.
