- 10. SALEABILITY • When you are replaceable, your company is more saleable. When someone buys your company, they will consider it more valuable if they can just take over the reins and it runs. FREEDOM • This is probably one of the reasons you started the business in the first place. If you are the critical piece, you won’t be able to take time off. LEADERSHIP • When you can systemize the day-to-day actions, you can shift into a role where you seek out new opportunities, try new things, and innovate PERSPECTIVE • If you can manage to get yourself out of the day-to- day, it will give you a chance to watch the business from afar. MAKE YOURSELF REPLEACEBLE If you are going to build a company and can’t be replaced, you are, in fact, building a trap. And that’s not something you want to get yourself into. www.functionaltraining.net

- Blue Ocean Strategy is a book published in 2005 and written by W. Chan Kim. Based on a study of 150 strategic moves spanning more than a hundred years and thirty industries, Kim & Mauborgne argue that companies can succeed not by battling competitors, but rather by creating ″blue oceans″ of uncontested market space. Red oceans represent all the industries in existence today – the known market space. In the red oceans, industry boundaries are defined and accepted, and the competitive rules of the game are known. Here companies try to outperform their rivals to grab a greater share of product or service demand. As the market space gets crowded, prospects for profits and growth are reduced. Products becomecommodities or niche, and cutthroat competition turns the ocean bloody; hence, the term red oceans.[4] Blue oceans, in contrast, denote all the industries not in existence today – the unknown market space, untainted by competition. In blue oceans, demand is created rather than fought over. There is ample opportunity for growth that is both profitable and rapid. In blue oceans, competition is irrelevant because the rules of the game are waiting to be set. Blue ocean is an analogy to describe the wider, deeper potential of market space that is not yet explored.[4][5] Cirque du Soleil – an example of creating a new market space, by blending opera and ballet with the circus format while eliminating star performers and animals
