2.    Basic Theory
2.1. SWOT Analysis
SWOT analysis identifiesseveral factors inside and outside the company systematically to formulate business strategies. It consists of four quadrants namely strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats.  The basic for SWOT analysis is logic to optimize strengths and opportunities as well as minimize weakness and threats at the same time. Strengths illustrate items owned by the analyzed company at higher level compared with business in the same field that assures certain advantage to them. Weaknesses describe the characteristics of the company which are either in lower performance or are needed but does not possessed. Opportunities are favorable opportunities from the external side available to the company which provide positive influence towards business. Threats are obstacles from external side which may affect the business capacity to fully achieve the target and there is chance to reduce business performance.  SWOT analysis can be established through identification of internal and external business environment.

Opportunities (O)
Threats (T)
The results of internal and external factor identification afterward are formulated into SWOT matrix. SWOT matrix mapping interactions between internal factors and internal factors to identify the important links between internal strengths, weakness and external opportunities, threats [5]. It arranges company strategic factors and describes how to adjust external opportunities and threats faced by the company with the strengths and weakness possessed by the company. It delivers four set of possible strategic alternatives: SO strategy, ST strategy, WO strategy, and WT strategy [6].

2.2. Business Model Canvas (BMC)
Business model is the logic on how the organization earns money. It highlighted two fundamental questions related the value provided to the customer and organization’ ability to capture value in the process of serving customers[7]. Business model also defines as tools allowing entrepreneurs and managers toimagine and craft organizations adept at drawing value from new technologies[8].
Business Model Canvas (BMC) is one of business model innovation used worldwide. It is describing the rationale of how an organization creates, delivers, and captures values [9]. BMC using the same language to develops, visualizes, appraises and alternates the existing business model. It divides business model into nine major components namely Customer Segments, Value propositions, Channel, Customer Relationships, Revenue Streams, Key Resources, Key Activities, Key Partners, and Cost Structure (sorted from right to left)[9].
Figure 1. Business Model Canvas[10].
The right side of the canvas represents the innovation and relatesdirectly to the customer. It consists of Customer Segments, Value propositions, Channels, Customer Relationships, and Revenue Streams. Customer segments describe the variety of group of people or organization who the company wants to provide. Value propositions describe combinations of products and services which create value for customer segments. Channels explain about the way company communicates with the customer and provide the value propositions. Various types of relationships are built together between the company and specific customer segments are described in customer relationships. Revenue streams are about cash inflow generated from value propositions offered to the customer segments.
The left side of the canvas represents the logical part related to business operational. It consists of Key Resources, Key Activities, Key Partners, and Cost Structure. The most important and necessary assets in functioning the business model is described in Key Resources. Key activities illustrate the most important things that must be done by the company so the business model can work. Key partners describe the networking of supplier and partners who support the business model. Cost structure is about all expenses occurred to operate the business model.
Business Model Canvas also can be used to established projections of financial analysis. It compares revenue stream and cost structure. Revenue stream consist of main income and other income, whereas cost structure consist of production cost, marketing expenses, research and development cost, administrative expenses, and taxes[11][12].
