19. Divide & Conquer Strategy
• Single product puts company in a dangerous
position. Some reasons:
• Anything on net can disappear in 5 years
• Vietnam market is too small for an ambitious
company with single product (or even with a couple
of products)
• Uncertain political environment
• Build (more than one thing) for last
• But you cannot do everything at once choose
the best one you can conquer
20. Fast & Furious Implementation
• “Life is short, life is much shorter on the net”
• If you find an opportunity today, 3 months after
can be too late. So:
• Do it fast, furiously
• Put all the best resources you have to get it
done
In VCCorp, best people are all moving from
project to project
21. Digital Content In A “Not Too Far Future”
• Content will be still the king, but what content?
• Editorial content: still good as long as it has
true value
• User-generated content: not a hype any
more, marketers love it
• Mobile content: it will be main stream for
sure but how we can monetize it?
• We cannot predict future, so bullet-proof strategy
should be: Open eyes and disrupt yourself
