Idea to Value

JULY 11, 2024

Every time you produce something creative, there is a high chance that it might fail. It doesn’t matter if it is an innovative new product idea, a new song, or a new recipe. Whatever you produce, and no matter how successful you have previously been, it does not mean that customers will want what you have produced. For example, in recent years Hollywood films have more frequently begun to “bomb” at the box office, taking in less ticket sales than was expected.

The story of Blockbuster video is one that is often repeated, but rarely understood. The CEO, John Antioco, did not, as is frequently assumed, ignore the Netflix threat but devised an effective strategy to meet it head on. However, tensions with shareholders eventually boiled over, a salary dispute led him to resign and the strategy was abandoned. Antioco’s mistake wasn't a lack of a market strategy, but a lack of a resistance strategy.

When I first moved overseas in 1997, email was still relatively new. There was no social media. Mostly, we communicated by landline and that was expensive. You couldn’t always reach who you wanted to, so things necessarily moved slower. We had to be more thoughtful because we didn’t really have any other choice. Today we live in a much more technological age, where many things move faster and we’ve come to expect nearly instant gratification.
