TONY HSIEH’S STRATEGIC PATTERN

As many of you know, we recently said goodbye to an amazing leader, former CEO of Zappos, Tony Hsieh. We learned many lessons from Tony, the most important one being that the key question in strategy is to ask, “What business are we really in?” On Zappos’ success, he told us, “We were doing pretty well as a shoe company, but our growth really took off when we realized we’re a customer service company that happens to sell shoes.”

Keep reading to discover three free resources to help you answer this essential question and set your 2021 strategy.

Peter Drucker highlighted this principle when he said, “‘What is our business?’ is almost always a difficult question which can be answered only after hard thinking and studying. And the right answer is anything but obvious.”

Strategy comes down to finding the answer and making decisions consistent with what business you are in. I give more examples in this free webinar.

HOW MICROBREWERIES GET CUSTOMERS TO DRIVE 100 MILES

This year my family spent Thanksgiving in Louisiana. During the trip, a friend from home asked me to pick up some of his favorite beer from a microbrewery a couple hours outside of the city. I found myself journeying past swamps, farms, and alligators to visit the brewery and fulfill his request.

 

Key questions addressed in the webinar are:

  • What business are we really in? 
  • What need will make customers drive 100 miles? 
  • How can we win by delivering value closer to customers?
