CAPTURE LEADERSHIP ECONOMICS If you’re a dominant player in your industry, 2.5 times the next player, you should be getting extraordinary economics. In contrast, if you’re a distant follower in your business, far behind the leader, it’s almost impossible to make a return on capital equal to the cost of capital in your industry. What this says is: Where we have leading positions, double down and focus on them and get superior economics. That is simplifying.

MANIACALLY FOCUS ON CUSTOMER ADVOCACY

STAY CLOSE TO THE CORE The average failure rate of adjacencies is more than 75%. You can improve that by 50% by just pursuing step-one adjacencies.

So if you’re dealing with the same customers and channels, but move into a new international market, that’s a one- step adjacency.
