The Business Model DNA (BMDNA) is a practitioner framework developed by Dr. Arndt Schwaiger that makes any business model measurable. It breaks down business models into 9+1 metric categories and derives target metrics like CAC (Customer Acquisition Cost), CLV (Customer Lifetime Value), MRR, and growth rates. The full BMDNA framework, including masterclasses, workshops, and templates, is available at the dedicated BMDNA website.
