EXAM question: Explain me the strategy of netflix? Connect with the schema underneath:
, What does explain Netflix’s success (i.e. competitiveness)
Netflix responded successfully to 4 massive transitions in the Entertainment Business/Industry:
1) From DVD by mail to Streamlining old TV Series and movies over the Internet
2) From Streaming old content to launching new original content (such as House of Cards)
produced by external studios
3) From licensing content provided by external studios to building their own in-house studio
that creates award-winning TV shows and movies (such as Roma, Stranger Things, La Casas
De Papel, and The Ballad of Buster Scruggs).
4) From a USA-only company to a global company entertaining people in 190 countries.
What do we mean by strategy?
• What is our present situation? = CONTEXT
- Business environment and industry conditions
- Firm’s financial and competitive capabilities
• Where do we want to go from here? = CONTENT
- Creating a vision for the firm’s future direction
• How are we going to get there? = PROCESS
- Crafting an action plan that will get us there
