Strategy Models: Who’s got the Power?
v
v
• Most strategy models are based either on a focus ono The market opportunityo The competitiono Inside excellence as a driver for success
• Even if these strategy models have proven their value in time, the changes in economic and market conditions require an open mind to incorporate new balances of power
• Today, one of the key power balance changes is the one between Provider and Customer
v
• This is where Arnoldo Hax’s Delta Model adds an additional dimension by placing the Customer centrally in the forming of your Strategy
The way to win is not to beat your competitor but to bond with your customers!

Challenges to move from best product to system lock-in?
Best Product
• Product differentiation, as technology gets more mature and lifecycles shorten, is very hard to achieve. If your product becomes a commodity, you are deprived from superior financial performance, from serving your customers splendidly and from having fun
• Focus on being the lowest cost provider in an undifferentiated product category will require a continuous effort to optimize supply chain
v
Challenges to move from best product to system lock-in?
Total Customer Solutions
• The first move is to stop selling “products” but start selling customer solutions. Customization, learning, and services bundles with products as a unique customer offering
• The objective value of a product or service are secondary to the perceived value of the customer
v
Total Customer Solutions
Customer Integration
• Customer Integration seeks to effectively substitute for or leverages activities currently performed by it’s customer. Competencies will be bundled and are brought to the customer to enhance his economics
• Example: vending machines (non owned) with data supply on stock and consumer behaviour

Dominant Exchange
• Dominant exchange seeks to provide the company an interface between buyers and sellers that is very hard to displace once it achieves critical mass. In this case the first mover advantage is critical
• Example:o Nespresso (technology with controlled supply and sales
channels)o Senseo (pad with limited exclusivity)

• Conclusionso Knowledge (consumer, shopper, customer) is Power.
When put to work with the latest technology it’s Profit!o Essilor focused on a sales channel that was seen as losing versus consolidated
chains, understood their needs and provided a solutiono By providing a Total Customer Solution to the independent Opticians (A to Z
Direct Marketing Programme), Essilor actually locks-in the Channel as no one else has such a direct access to their customers
o Know the value chain of your business and where you can add value!
• A couple of questions for your own reflexiono Is my Business B2C or actually B2B2C?o In B2B2C, How can I combine my strengths with B’s knowledge (and systems?)
to enhance my consumer knowledge, create more value for B and create additional consumer contacts for my business?
o The value chain: how often do I question the classic business models and think about different models allowing me to capture more of the value?
