2. Recipe for Disruption
Follow an approach that makes it more accessible, more
affordable, faster and with higher quality for a large group of
people to do what matters to them.
Develop a way of offering a product or service that is
difficult for others to replicate, keeping costs radically lower
than competitors.
Tackle markets that existing companies are motivated to exit
or ignore because they are unprofitable or seemingly too
small to matter.
