The best models:The best models:The best models:The best models:
1. Man-in-the-middle. Make money from other transactions. (MasterCard/Visa)movie suggestion: Middle Man
2. Monopoly! (but watch out for cartels) monopolies are like dinosaurs, they extinct, less innovation!
3. Cash your stocks. WhatsApp, 55 employees! (but that’s not a planned business/revenue model)

• Use it for free, before trying to sell. If the product sucks, nobody will buy it later on
• Credits versus monthly subscriptions. (easier to maintain as well)
• Always unlimited audiences.
• Measure the products used, and change regular.– Promotion codes
– Limited offers
– 10 credits with 10 questions, worth 200 euro? = free publicity => marketing
• KLM versus Ryanair. Price drop!There are some competitors in the market, VoxVote is currently 80% cheaper.
• I prefer thousands of small users above a few heavy paying users. “Massa is Kassa”

Vox has many meanings, but all sound, voice, vote related. Vox Populi is a Latin phrase that literally means voice of the people. In
broadcasting, Vox Populi is an interview with members of the general public. And a combination of interviewing and voting results in the
VoxVote name. We have nothing to do with brown animals ‘The Fox’ or the FOX network, we are VoxVote with a V. This V can also be
found in the initials of our founder Vincent – VvW – and are integrated in our logo as well.
