Ex-Deloitte Management Consultant

Improve the growth and efficiency of your organization by leveraging the know-how of ex-McKinsey, Deloitte & BCG Management Consultants
without breaking your budget.
Imagine having a team of ex-McKinsey, Deloitte and BCG Management Consultants at your disposal at any time of the day to help you solve your
business problems and improve the growth and efficiency of your organization. How much more confident would you be about the future performance of
your organization and your own career? How much more time could you save?
If you have ever tried solving business problems that you haven’t encountered before, you know how frustrating it can be to start from scratch. And even
then, you still aren’t sure if what you’re doing is going to end up wasting your time and money. Having someone by your side who has already solved
these business problems would be a huge help. That’s why businesses hire management consultants for support in the first place.
The only problem is that hiring a couple of tier-1 Consultants for a management consulting project would cost you at least $300,000! Not every business
or team can afford this.
I wanted to do something about this because I believe everyone deserves to receive high value business guidance, regardless of their budget!
That’s why I’ve teamed up with other ex-McKinsey, Deloitte and BCG Consultants to create all the Business & Consulting Toolkits required to solve your
business problems and improve the growth and efficiency of your organization! And it's all inside our website www.slidebooks.com and the
Gold Business & Consulting Package.
No matter if you're an executive, entrepreneur or consultant from a small or large organization, you can now leverage the know-how and best practices
of our ex-McKinsey, Deloitte & BCG Management Consultants without breaking your budget.
Join the 200,000+ Executives, Consultants & Entrepreneurs leveraging our Business & Consulting Toolkits to improve the performance of
their organization and boost their own career.

Part of the Corporate & Business Strategy Toolkit 20


The “Entering a new market” Framework includes 3 components

Desirability

Profitability Feasibility

Part of the Corporate & Business Strategy Toolkit 21


Each component has an underlying question that we will have to answer to
identify if it is a good strategic initiative to enter this new market

What is the potential demand for our Product in


Desirability this new Market?

What will be the profitability of Profitability Feasibility What is the feasibility to enter this new
this strategic initiative? Market?

Part of the Corporate & Business Strategy Toolkit 22


If the answer is “high” or “very high” to the 3 questions, then it means that
entering the European market is a good strategic initiative

What is the potential demand for our Product in


Desirability this new Market?

What will be the profitability of Profitability Feasibility What is the feasibility to enter this new
this strategic initiative? Market?

Part of the Corporate & Business Strategy Toolkit 23


Desirability
What is the potential demand for our Product in this new Market? Very High

Describe the key product(s) we would like to sell? Is it a commodity or a differentiated product? What are its Key benefits? Any potential substitute
Product product?

Are we answering a customer need or are we creating a new customer need? Who are our potential customers? How many are they? Is the
Customers customer demand expected to increase or decrease in the future? How much the customer will be willing to pay for our product? How many
products will the customer be buying per year?

Who will be our main competitors? What is the revenue, profit, unique selling proposition and strategy of each one of them? How intense is the
Competition competition in this market? Do they have key capabilities that we don’t have or vice versa? What’s their pricing position?

The total market size is: The number of customers multiplied by the number of products purchased every year per customer multiplied by the
Market size Product price. Checking the annual report of our competitors may help us calculate this number.
How much of this market do we think we can get? Why do we think so? Do we have a strong enough unique selling proposition (USP)?

Ansoff Growth Matrix
Purpose

The Ansoff Growth


Matrix, also called
Product/Market Growth
Matrix, will help you
outline the different
strategies a company
can use in order to
increase market share or
introduce a new product

Part of the Management Consulting Toolkit 47


Ansoff Growth Matrix
Description

The Ansoff Matrix was developed by H. Igor Ansoff and first published in the Harvard Business Review in
1957, in an article titled "Strategies for Diversification." It has given generations of marketers and business
leaders a quick and simple way to think about the risks of growth.

Sometimes called the Product/Market Expansion Grid, the Matrix shows four strategies you can use to
grow. It also helps you analyze the risks associated with each one. The idea is that each time you move into
a new quadrant (horizontally or vertically), risk increases.

Why are we considering the Big Data for our organization?

Big data is a term that describes the large volume of data, both structured and unstructured, that inundates a business on a day-to-day
basis. But it’s not the amount of data that’s important. It is what organizations do with the data that matters. Big data can be analyzed for
insights that lead to better tactical and strategical decisions. The next slides deep dive in each
technology
While the term “big data” is relatively new, the act of gathering and storing large amounts of information for eventual analysis is ages old.
The concept gained momentum in the early 2000s when industry analyst Doug Laney articulated the now-mainstream definition of big
data as the three Vs:

• Volume: Organizations collect data from a variety of sources, including business transactions, social media and information from
sensor or machine-to-machine data. In the past, storing it would’ve been a problem, but today, new technologies have eased the
challenge.

• Velocity: Data streams in at an unprecedented speed and must be dealt with in a timely manner. RFID tags, sensors and smart
metering are driving the need to deal with torrents of data in near-real time.

• Variety: Data comes in all types of formats, from structured, numeric data in traditional databases to unstructured text documents,
email, video, audio, stock ticker data and financial transactions.

The amount of data in our world has been exploding, and analyzing large data sets will become a key basis of competition, underpinning
new waves of productivity growth, innovation, and consumer surplus, according to research by MGI and McKinsey's Business
Technology Office.

Problem to Solve & Solution

Problem to solve Solution


Insert your own text Insert your own text

If there is no real problem to


solve, it will be very challenging
to generate revenue.

Make sure to quickly test that the


problem you are trying to solve is a
real problem. Quickly speaking with
your customers and observing them
is very important. You don’t want to
spend 12 months creating the
“perfect Solution” to a problem that
does not really exist
