Do You Know What It takes To Be Excellent?
The Dream
Something has dramatically changed. You wake up one day and you can almost taste it in the air. What can it be?
As if guided by divine intuition, you open the sales spreadsheet and see it—your embedded device is being devoured like ice cream on a hot summer day. Your customers don't seem to stop growing in numbers, praising the quality of your product.
This is it. You have made it. Success!
All the crunching and the grit, the stress and uncountable hours have paid off. Your company has achieved successful market placement signaling you are now in the market-pull zone.
But how do you reach this point?
Product Success: The inflection point marks the moment the investment transforms to cash-positive returns.
Where you don’t want to be
First, let’s look at the life cycle of strategic efficiency. In order to be on the curve going up, you must make the right decisions at the right time. Otherwise, the struggle to keep up your strategy translates into opportunity cost, which grows increasingly in time.
So it begs the questions:
What is the most important decision I need to make?
When do I need to decide?
Now you have a dilemma.
Life-cycle of strategic efficiency: The inflection points mark where the ambiguity of decisions is replaced by continuous growth or growing opportunity cost.
Constraints
To solve the dilemma, you need an entire group of experts whose entire purpose is to manage the risk of placing your company on the right path. They cost an estimated 500,000 Euro per year.
Even if your company has the budget for such resources, it still takes 3 to 7 years to establish the necessary center of excellence to answer the complex questions above. So now it becomes a race against time for your product to reach your customers before your competitors do.
And still there is no guarantee that your product will succeed.
What if there was an easier way?
