Blue Ocean Strategy
W. Chan Kim and Renee Mauborgne Paid Intermediate
When incumbents all compete on the same features for the same buyers, this book shows how to redraw the offer so you are not fighting on their terms. It gives you tools to drop what the leader overserves and add what a neglected segment actually values. Use it to design a wedge that sidesteps a head on price and feature war.
- Compete by changing what you offer, not by matching rivals
- Drop features the incumbent overserves, add what buyers really want
- New demand often sits in the space the leaders overlook
