Now it’s about
managing disruption.
It used to be about fighting over market
share.

Now it’s digital as a model.
It used to bedigital as media.

Now it’s about infinite shelves &
free shipping.
It used tobe about
shelf space.

“There is a dramatic leveling of the playing field. The advantages of scale
that guaranteed success in the post-war era just don’t matter very much when
advertising is cheap, shelf space is infinite, and shipping is free.”

“We all know that if you swing for the fences, you’re going to strike out a lot, but you’re also going to hit some home runs.
The difference between baseball and business, however, is that baseball has a
truncated outcome distribution…
Jeff Bezos - Amazon, 2015 Shareholder Annual Letter

…When you swing, no matter how well you connect with the ball, the most runs you
can get is four. In business, every once in a while, when you step up to the plate, you
can score 1,000 runs.”
