Social casino is one of the bloodiest of red oceans, with excellent well-financed companies competing ferociously. The best path to success is to take a Blue Ocean approach.
Blue Ocean is all about turning non-customers into customers, rather than competing for the same customer.
You do this by looking at what you can remove from the existing product offering, what you can add, what you can increase and what you can reduce. This leads to a new offering that appeals to new users.
Blue ocean strategy is the simultaneous pursuit of differentiation and low cost to open up a new market space and create new demand. In this presentation I'll explain what Blue Ocean Strategy is and how we can create one. In order to create Blue Oceans, several tools and frameworks are introduced.
This is a presentation on Blue Ocean Strategies (BOS) that explains to the viewer the basic concepts of BOS and what exactly is a BOS. Most of the information is taken from the book Blue Ocean Strategy: How To Create Uncontested Market Space And Make The Competition Irrelevant (W. Chan Kim, R. Mauborgne, 2005).

Blue Ocean Strategy by W. Chan Kim and Renee MauborgneSameer Mathur
A cutthroat competition results in nothing but a bloody red ocean of rivals fighting over a shrinking profit pool.Here is a book summary of "Blue Ocean Strategy" compiled by Prof. Sameer Mathur.
In the continual quest for sustainable growth, companies
have traditionally focused on the competition.
They have fought over the same customers, tried to
improve on the same benefits, and hoped to wring
profits from a shrinking revenue stream. In Blue
Ocean Strategy, professors W. Chan Kim and Renée
Mauborgne argue that the key to success is to make the
competition irrelevant. They offer a practical, tested
analytical framework that innovators in any sector
can use to create new, uncontested market space. In
this “blue ocean,” organizations can take advantage
of untapped demand and deliver powerful leaps in
value—both for their customers and for themselves.
In this presentation, we will introduce the concept of “Blue Ocean Strategy”, to help you understand and gain a strong foothold in online competitive market place.

Blue green red and purple ocean strategySajna Fathima
blue green purple and red ocean strategy
Globalization is characterized by global production and exchange of goods and services as well as a global flow of technology, information, and capital. The business strategy is composed of two types of oceans: red oceans and blue oceans. Red ocean strategy is to intense competition. On the other hand, Blue ocean strategy is about growing demand, breaking away from the competition.

Winning the War: How to Build a Great Game Company presentation at Casual Con...Lloyd Melnick
Presentation given at Casual Connect 2012 on how to build a great game company in the current environment.
The good old days are over and building a great social game company is more difficult now than ever. Funding is not as easily available. Marketing is no longer just placing Facebook ads and counting the users. User acquisition overall is more costly. Game design is more complicated. Platform choice adds another risk factor. Exits are not easy to come by.
In this presentation, I discuss how to navigate the social gaming terrain to create a successful company (and also help define success). I start by looking at what is attractive to investors and alternatives to traditional investment. I then analyze how to create an engaging and monetizing social game and how to choose a target platform(s). Then I review how you can get users for your games. Finally, I discuss the key issues in sustaining and growing your company so you reach your goals.
Presentation from Casual Connect Seattle 2012 on The Importance of the Future, new opportunities to use business intelligence in the social gaming space.

Implicitly or explicitly all competing businesses employ a strategy to select a mix
of marketing resources. Formulating such competitive strategies fundamentally
involves recognizing relationships between elements of the marketing mix (e.g.,
price and product quality), as well as assessing competitive and market conditions
(i.e., industry structure in the language of economics).

31. Strategic Planning
Most companies’
strategic planning
processes keeps them
wedded to red oceans
The process drives
companies to compete
within existing market
space instead of
looking for new market
spaces
Typical Process:
• Current Industry conditions
and competitive situation
• Discussion on how to
increase market share,
capture new segments or cut
costs
• Outline of goals
• Budgets and spreadsheets
• Output: a large document
where people spent time
filling in boxes and running
numbers instead of thinking
outside the box

achieving value innovation.
Move away from:
• Focus on existing customers
• Driving finer segmentation to

It shows the company’s strategic profile

• Product Placement
• Fun
• Platforms
• Time Killing
37
Reorient your strategic focus from:
• Competitors to Alternatives
• Customers to Noncustomers
Creators of Blue Ocean Strategies DO NOT use the competition as benchmark
They focus on making the competition irrelevant by creating a leap in value opening up new and uncontested market space
They seek differentiation and low cost simultaneously
Cost savings are made by eliminating and reducing the factors an industry competes on
Buyer value is lifted by raising and creating elements the industry has never offered
They step away from what is expected, and by questioning its ongoing relevance, redefine their offerings
