In this video I discuss the Freemium business model. This is traditionally a web based business model, but many elements of it can be found in many other kinds of offline, brick and mortar businesses The key is to notice what elements of the Freemium business model make it work so well, and then to apply and fit those elements to your business.
In this video I cover how Freemium makes your business more defensible, helps your marketing and sharing, and how you can get the non-paying customers to convert to paying customers.
Keep in mind that there is no such thing as the best business model. And while freemium is a very good business model, for different industries, different business models work differently. Additionally, very often, as you grow your business, you have to add and remove elements of a business model that work and do not work. So often, you do not end up with a perfect version of the freemium business model, but some reshaped version of the freemium business model. And that goes for every business model and not just freemium. On the other hand, there are many instances where the freemium business model is not a perfect fit. But nevertheless, you can take elements of the freemium model which might work well for your business.
For example, one of the strengths of the freemium business model is that you can give something of value for free. And that is what draws that large volume of potential customers to your business. But what if you are a store or a restaurant? Can you give something away for free? It is very difficult because it costs you real money. The reason the freemium business model works so well on the web is that digital goods are nearly free to give away. But that is not the case for brick & mortar businesses.
But nevertheless, if you have a store or a coffee shop, what if you host an event in your store or a coffee shop? You will get many people to come for the event, and maybe they will spend money with your business while they are there. So that is an element of the freemium business model at work. Try to think about where you can use freemium in your business to your advantage.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6TgRq6unc0kAbout the Site π
This site provides links to random videos hosted at YouTube, with the emphasis on random. π₯
Origins of the Idea π±
The original idea for this site stemmed from the need to benchmark the popularity of a video against the general population of YouTube videos. π§
Challenges Faced π€
Obtaining a large sample of videos was crucial for accurate ranking, but YouTube lacks a direct method to gather random video IDs.
Even searching for random strings on YouTube doesn't yield truly random results, complicating the process further. π
Creating Truly Random Links π οΈ
The YouTube API offers additional functions enabling the discovery of more random videos. Through inventive techniques and a touch of space-time manipulation, we've achieved a process yielding nearly 100% random links to YouTube videos.
About YouTube πΊ
YouTube, an American video-sharing website based in San Bruno, California, offers a diverse range of user-generated and corporate media content. π
Content and Users π΅
Users can upload, view, rate, share, and comment on videos, with content spanning video clips, music videos, live streams, and more.
While most content is uploaded by individuals, media corporations like CBS and the BBC also contribute. Unregistered users can watch videos, while registered users enjoy additional privileges such as uploading unlimited videos and adding comments.
Monetization and Impact π€
YouTube and creators earn revenue through Google AdSense, with most videos free to view. Premium channels and subscription services like YouTube Music and YouTube Premium offer ad-free streaming.
As of February 2017, over 400 hours of content were uploaded to YouTube every minute, with the site ranking as the second-most popular globally. By May 2019, this figure exceeded 500 hours per minute. π
