Revenue model
A revenue model is based on a trust model and some assumptions about the economy and money, and people's willingness to provide direct financial support to some process they agree with, or want something from.
Both for-profit and nonprofit organizations need revenue models if they offer anything to anyone that they can make an economic choice about at all.
Concerns of a revenue model:
- instructional capital and how it is used or controlled
- cashflow
- betting such as running raffles or bingo or selling itself on a stock market
- money's overall role in the common values of those coming together in the organization
Without a trust model, no one can set up a trusted governance organization and there is no trusted auditor, so the process cannot even get started.
