For example, we may already be their customers if we have used their subscription services. Due to its recurring and stable cash flow, this business model stands out from other models.

&nbsp;

 Some third-party marketplaces like OpenSea allow people to buy virtual real estate. It will be a great choice if you have decided to start a business using this business model as the craze for games never ends. 
 Here is a list of companies that successfully use this model,

 Hook &amp; Bait Model 
 By using this approach, startups can sell basic products at an affordable or cheap price to make a profit and sell complementary products at a higher price. The main focus of this model is to create brand awareness and increase the sales of the company. One of the primary examples of a company using this model is Nespresso - you cannot use coffee capsules without a coffee machine. This model gives better adaptability to business and creates customer loyalty.

&nbsp;
 Reverse Auction Model 
 Reverse Auction Model is a type of auction in which sellers bid for the prices at which they are willing to sell their goods and services. It’s totally opposite to regular auction methods. By using the reverse auction model, startups can implement a strategy by sourcing between buyers and sellers, where they compete with one another in order to win the business of the buyer and sell one or more products or services he markets. After that, the buyer understands the bids and selects one or more suppliers for his business. 
 Here are some business sectors that successfully use this model, 

 
 	 Construction companies,&nbsp; 
 	 Real estate companies&nbsp; 
 	 Public sector companies and many more&nbsp; 
 
&nbsp;
 Modernized Direct Sales Model 
 In this model, the employees of the companies demonstrate their product or services and sell it to end customers. The direct sales model is highly effective as it cut down middleman charges and allows the company to directly interact with its customers. This model allows startups to implement effective marketing strategies to reach customers and improve the revenue of the business. 
 Here are some companies that successfully use this model, 

 
 	 H&amp;M 
 	 Mary Kay 
 	 Arbonne, and many more&nbsp; 
 
&nbsp;
 Finally,&nbsp;&nbsp; 
 These are the most effective business models you can easily use for any startup regardless of its field. I believe that you have all the insights about the startup business models, and you will use them for your company’s development.&nbsp;
