Red Ocean Strategy
Known market space
Industries boundary are well defined and accepted
Competitive rules of the game are known
Outperform rivals and grab a greater share of existing demand
Crowding: prospects for growth and profits are reduced
Commoditization and cut throat competition (Red ocean)

Blue Ocean strategy
Untapped market space Opportunity for highly profitable growth Create from red ocean by expanding the existing industry boundaries Competition is irrelevant since rules of game are yet to be set

Red vs Blue
5
Can we ignore red ocean?
Red ocean will always matter
However, supply exceeding demand in most industries, competing for
a share of contracting market will not be enough

Profit and Growth consequences
7
Impact of creating Blue oceans
86% of these launches were “Line extensions”
Only 14% were aimed at creating new markets
These 14% resulted in 61% of profits
8
Rising imperative for creating Blue ocean Trade barriers dismantled – Globally available products and prices.
No clear evidence of increasing demand.
Accelerated commoditization, price wars and shrinking margins.
Differentiating becomes harder in red ocean.
So now what? – Create demand and delve into other ocean.
9
Reconstructionist view of strategy
Tools are available to survive in red oceans.
No benchmarking of competitors. Create value for buyers and company.
Market boundaries are reconstructed.
No differentiation costs in blue ocean.
Competition – an irrelevant factor.
Blue ocean – Costs reduce, Value for buyers increases.
Whole system alignment – utility, price, and costs.

Four actions framework – In Yellow tail
13
Three characteristics of good strategy Focus on efforts and not on all factors od competition.
Diverge from other players – looking at alternatives
Tagline – Fun and simple wine.
14
Reading the value curve
Litmus test to check if the company is in right track. No focus – high cost structure
No divergence – “me-too”
No tagline – innovation for innovation’s sake.
Value curve merging of one company with other – Red ocean signal.
Incoherent strategy – Zigzag curve.
Strategic considerations – High on one factor and ignore others.
