Is your Market Share Elevated or Deflated?

 Is your Market Share Elevated or Deflated?

Today’s economy is built on “speed”.  How “fast” you are to the market. We work and collaborate in a time of disruption and change. Yet, we seem to never navigate away from our “strategy”, even when our market share can be gained or lost by the “next big” thing. While it may not be the best “idea”, market share can be torpedoed by a company that can launch their product faster than you. They can deliver on relevant content and tangible value faster than their competition.  And in this age of “shared information” paired with “relevant content and perceived value”, the companies that respond quickly can elevate their shareholder value. Companies that can’t respond, their shareholder value can quickly become deflated. Where are you on the speed continuum? Elevated or deflated?

Gut Check – Do you have what it takes?

I love the quote below mentioned in the July 3rd WSJ Tour de France cycling story. There were numerous mentions about the downhill segments of the race quoting…”not often discussed, riding downhill is cycling’s supreme test of derring-do.”…the difference in the race “cycling experts and riders say, may very well come on the way down”. The article went on to say, and this is the quote I like…”one of the biggest advantages seems to be a matter of guts. Descending barely requires pedaling, just seriously advanced bike handling. the only limit is the rider’s appetite for risk.” Do you have the guts and the appetite do approach your challenges. When you conquer your fears and face your challenges it all “downhill”   Continued Success!
