The Long Tail
Long tail business models are about selling less of more:
o How can you systematically offer something for free and still earn substantial
revenues?
This may happen from the “outside-in” by exploiting external ideas within the firm, or from the “inside-out” by providing external
parties with ideas or assets lying idle within the firm.

“Outside-in” innovation occurs when an organization brings external ideas, technology, or intellectual property into its
development and commercialization processes.
“Inside-out” innovation occurs when organizations license or sell their intellectual property or technologies, particularly unused
assets.
