| Sumario: | “The consumer electronics world sets a blistering pace for innovation, and anyone hoping to keep up–or take the lead–should read this book. Insightful and comprehensive, it maps out the industry terrain, and then points the way toward opportunities that lie ahead. Bailey and Wenzek have put together a compelling read on this fascinating global industry.” –Tom Kelley, General Manager IDEO author, The Ten Faces of Innovation “Consumer electronics is one of the largest, fastest growing, most exciting, and most ruthless markets in the global economy. And technology and innovation are pouring into the space at an accelerating pace. Unfortunately, many vendors are not making money. Maniacal focus on return on investment is the key to success, and this book provides thought-provoking ideas on how to drive it.” –Mike Bingle, Managing Director Silver Lake Partners “An industry built on the foundation of market dominance is being shaken up. In consumer electronics, those keystone companies that appraise the innovative value of niche players regain profitable growth. This book outlines what it takes to win in a turbulent ecosystem.” –Marco Iansiti, Professor of Business Administration Harvard Business School The consumer electronics industry is entering an era of extraordinary growth. The industry’s best companies will ride that wave to unprecedented success. But, today, many CE companies are struggling with business models that are simply untenable. They must change to survive: they must change even more dramatically to win. In this book, two world-renowned consultants preview the industry’s future–from online gaming to telehealthcare, and beyond. Next, they present a powerful new blueprint, offering indispensable guidance on everything from technology platforms to user interface design, branding to channel strategies. You’ll discover how to uncover new sources of value, design better models for doing business, and fuel growth by reaching new geographical markets. Whatever your role in the industry, this book will help you: · Make better decisions, find your differentiators, and focus on your key success drivers · Tap into the emergent “meta-value” that arises when technologies, devices, services, and content come together · Reach tomorrow’s smart, service-sensitive shopper: not just the “technology-hungry” customers · Widen margins by adding value consumers will pay for · Transform cost structures to support rapid growth and nonstop change ·... |
