Pricing Strategy: How To Win With Subscription Pricing ModelsZuora, Inc.
http://bit.ly/PricingStrategySlide This presentation is focused on your pricing strategy and how to drive massive revenue growth. Zuora and our partner Simon-Kucher do lot of events together – pricing is always one of the most popular topics, because it’s such an important strategic lever. Pricing is even more important for subscription businesses – We’ll discuss why. We’re fortunate to work with a lot different types of subscription businesses and we learn about their subscription journeys – this is the content that we want to share with you. http://bit.ly/PricingStrategySlide
Over the past decade, modern distributors have implemented massive organizational change. Most were driven by customer needs and market demands while a few others were based on shifts in the behavior of our supply partners. But, I believe the time has come for us to consider our own needs. The time has come to build a position which benefits the shareholders of the wholesaler.
Financial modeling in Excel for Business Analysts and ConsultantsAsen Gyczew
As a business analysts or a consultant you will have to from time to time create financial models. There are a bit different than business models. In business models you go into details of operations and you focus on getting the links on the KPIs. Those models are usually done for internal purposes, to manage in the right direction the business. Financial models on the other hand are more for external users. You concentrate in them on creating the picture of the business in a standardized, understood by everybody way. You also want to create the financial statements: profit & loss statement, balance sheet statement, cash flow statement.
On top of that you use the financial statements for valuation purposes.
The most typical situation when, as a business analyst or a consultant, you will have to prepare such a model are connected with selling or purchasing a company. You may be doing it on the sell side or on the buy side. Financial modeling is done as a part of strategy projects, turn around projects, due diligence.
I will NOT teach you everything on financial modelling because it is simply not efficient (and frankly you don’t need it). This course is organized around 80/20 rule and I want to teach you the most useful (from business analyst / consultant perspective) ways to go as fast as possible from rough description to working model in Excel that you can make more and more complicated.
The aim of this course is that you are able to do a financial model of the business as fast as possible.

Belgian startup scene is booming
Belgium is not just the country of waffles, chocolates, beer and smurfs. It has a thriving startup scene too.
Brussels, both the capital of Belgium and Europe, is hosting the lion share of Belgian startups: a whopping 33% of all startups are based there.
Startups in Belgium are mainly B2B oriented (72%), it’s the opposite of Silicon Valley where B2C startups dominate with a ratio of 2:1. There is a reason for it: location. If you would take a radius of 500 km around Brussels, you will find the highest diversity in industrial capabilities and know how in the world. It also explains why manufacturing focused startups are the second biggest vertical in the industry ranking.
1/3 of the Belgian startups are in a scaling stage, but with only € 100M of VC investment last year, there is still a long way to go. Despite the finance gap, the startup ecosystem is accelerating as of 2010. More startups are created in the last 4 years than in the previous 40 years.
10% of Belgian startups have a foreign branch, given that it’s a small multilingual market, this is not a surprise. The popular destination is the USA, with 31% of all foreign branches, followed by the neighboring countries France, Netherlands, UK and Luxembourg. Surprisingly, neighboring manufacturing powerhouse Germany didn’t make it to the top 5.
Lastly, 9% of startups started their life as an university spin-off. Given the enormous amount of public money that is invested in (technology) research this is a rather low output. Once again it confirms the European paradox: great science but the translation of knowledge into marketable innovations is poor.

The "PAY NEVER" model is perfect for consumer web & app companies without a clear monetization strategy, that is if you have the (financial) runway to gain traction. The focus is users, users and users.
However, the only place in the world to finance this model is Silicon Valley as it requires very deep (VC) pockets hence the name: bootstrap-the-vc model.

The accuracy of the financial reporting system de-
pends on answers to a few fundamental questions. At
what point has revenue been earned? At what point
is the earnings process complete? When have ex-
penses really been incurred?
During the 1990s, the stock prices of dot-com com-
panies boomed. Many dot-com companies earned most
of their revenue from selling advertising
space on their websites. To boost re-
ported revenue, some dot-coms began
swapping website ad space. Company
A would put an ad for its website on company B’s web-
site, and company B would put an ad for its website on
company A’s website. No money ever changed hands,
but each company recorded revenue (for the value of
the space that it gave up on its site). This practice did
little to boost net income and resulted in no additional
cash flow—but it did boost reported revenue. Regula-
tors eventually put an end to the practice.
Another type of transgression results from compa-
nies recording revenue or expenses in the wrong year.
In fact, shifting revenues and expenses is one of the
most common abuses of financial accounting. Xerox
admitted reporting billions of dollars of lease revenue
in periods earlier than it should h ...

# Internet Security: Safeguarding Your Digital World
In the contemporary digital age, the internet is a cornerstone of our daily lives. It connects us to vast amounts of information, provides platforms for communication, enables commerce, and offers endless entertainment. However, with these conveniences come significant security challenges. Internet security is essential to protect our digital identities, sensitive data, and overall online experience. This comprehensive guide explores the multifaceted world of internet security, providing insights into its importance, common threats, and effective strategies to safeguard your digital world.
## Understanding Internet Security
Internet security encompasses the measures and protocols used to protect information, devices, and networks from unauthorized access, attacks, and damage. It involves a wide range of practices designed to safeguard data confidentiality, integrity, and availability. Effective internet security is crucial for individuals, businesses, and governments alike, as cyber threats continue to evolve in complexity and scale.
### Key Components of Internet Security
1. **Confidentiality**: Ensuring that information is accessible only to those authorized to access it.
2. **Integrity**: Protecting information from being altered or tampered with by unauthorized parties.
3. **Availability**: Ensuring that authorized users have reliable access to information and resources when needed.
## Common Internet Security Threats
Cyber threats are numerous and constantly evolving. Understanding these threats is the first step in protecting against them. Some of the most common internet security threats include:
### Malware
Malware, or malicious software, is designed to harm, exploit, or otherwise compromise a device, network, or service. Common types of malware include:
- **Viruses**: Programs that attach themselves to legitimate software and replicate, spreading to other programs and files.
- **Worms**: Standalone malware that replicates itself to spread to other computers.
- **Trojan Horses**: Malicious software disguised as legitimate software.
- **Ransomware**: Malware that encrypts a user's files and demands a ransom for the decryption key.
- **Spyware**: Software that secretly monitors and collects user information.
### Phishing
Phishing is a social engineering attack that aims to steal sensitive information such as usernames, passwords, and credit card details. Attackers often masquerade as trusted entities in email or other communication channels, tricking victims into providing their information.
### Man-in-the-Middle (MitM) Attacks
MitM attacks occur when an attacker intercepts and potentially alters communication between two parties without their knowledge. This can lead to the unauthorized acquisition of sensitive information.
### Denial-of-Service (DoS) and Distributed Denial-of-Service (DDoS) Attacks

Wireless communication involves the transmission of information over a distance without the help of wires, cables or any other forms of electrical conductors.
Wireless communication is a broad term that incorporates all procedures and forms of connecting and communicating between two or more devices using a wireless signal through wireless communication technologies and devices.
Features of Wireless Communication
The evolution of wireless technology has brought many advancements with its effective features.
The transmitted distance can be anywhere between a few meters (for example, a television's remote control) and thousands of kilometers (for example, radio communication).
Wireless communication can be used for cellular telephony, wireless access to the internet, wireless home networking, and so on.
