Vertical Integration (With Real World Examples) | From A Business Professor

[@normanlee3401]

I have never seen vertical integration broken down so well. This video does a great job of looking at the different components and uses of vertical integration.

[@ryancurbo6233]

Vertical integration is something I have a started to see more within the automotive aftermarket industry. It has been great so far since we now only have to talk with one company instead of three, saving both time and money.

[@delaneylee4486]

I was not really sure what vertical integration really was until I watched this video. I really liked how this video broke it down and explained it in better details. This video really helped me understand vertical integration.

[@brenoconnor2570]

Seeing vertical integration broken down into the different stages and the different types of integration helped me to understand each one better. It also helped to include businesses using the different integration models so I can picture better what each company is like.

[@harleighwootton2209]

This video breaks down vertical integration very well. It teaches everything you need to know even the business aspects of it. As consumer it is great to understand things like it and actually know what is going on.

[@bettycarroll8139]

The vertical value chain is really interesting to me. Sometimes as a consumer, we forget that everything has a process to go through. When looking at the steps you can see that it takes many businesses to technically come together to have a finished project.

[@Emily-gy8ws]

I also forget the difference between vertical and horizontal integration so seeing it with real world examples has improved my knowledge. Now that I have an example to attach the definition to, I am more confident in my understanding.

[@samanthasandoval4717]

Being able to understand what kind of vertical integration companies use is very helpful and overseeing construction contracts, helps put the processes into perspective.

[@franciscoleon9575]

The concept of vertical integration is something that I believe all businesses should strive to integrate since that will give them full control of their company, although there could be many bumps on the road to vertical integration.

[@user-xq2vs2dy2j]

It was nice to have vertical integration broken down, it made it very easy to understand all aspects of it. After watching the video, I will now be able to understand it in the real world.

[@michaelplatt4353]

Vertical intigration is something that i never fully understood until watching this video. Thank you!

[@jessicajohnson1199]

Vertical integration is what I want for my future business. As an event planner, I see so many brides who do not want to use so many different vendors. It streamlines their process and budget if they have one place that can do it all. So, providing the venue, decorations and planning all in one place allows less stress for them and the perfect vertical integration for me. I do not have to rely on so many different people and benefit financially! This video explained it so well.

[@selfmadetone2605]

I didn't have any knowledge on vertical integration prior to this video. Seeing vertical integration broken down into the different stages and the different type of vertical integration was very informative.

[@iamadangovea]

Learning vertical integration though this video was super easy to do because the video was easy to grasp. I had an idea, but this really fills in all gaps or questions that I might have.

[@logggggs385]

The breakdown of vertical integration was helpful because it made understanding every facet of it much simpler. I can now understand it in the real world after watching the video.

[@kylafranklin]

I was able to comprehend each one more fully when I saw vertical integration divided into its various stages and forms. Incorporating companies that use various integration models also helped me visualize each company's characteristics better.

[@ryanmccarley8082]

This video does a great job in going in depth on the explanation of the different parts. I now have a better understanding of the topic. Before this video, I only knew of the advantages to vertical integration, I hadn't even thought about the disadvantages as well. Great video!

[@loganhenderson9630]

I liked how this topic was broken down in this video because it allowed me to grasp it way better then before. I really enjoyed learning how businesses can obtain vertical integration and how they struggle to obtain it.

[@jordanlindsey7348]

Vertical integration is very intresting to learn about! See how just one product goes through many different stages just to finally make it to the hand of the consumer is fascinating.

[@bellastrickland3132]

Vertical integration is perfect for companies who want to expand their business but want to stay in the same market. Companies can either go forward, stating at manufacturing and ending at selling for backwards, which would be the opposite of the former.

[@kimkimdinar9113]

Great explanation, lots of examples, It provides me a deeper insight about the definition. Thanks for video, I’m so grateful

[@LauraYav-uc2re]

The details are what make this video interesting. I honestly didn’t know anything about vertical integration. Great and informative video.

[@robertbing7585]

Vertical integration can provide advantages like increased control over the supply chain, improved efficiency, and innovation. However, it can also limit competition and require significant investment. It's a complex strategy that requires careful consideration for effective implementation.

[@theotherguy6951]

Merging with a supplier or distributor does not reduce competition

[@cynthiarichardson133]

The goal is to gain greater control over the supply chain and manufacturing process. When done right, vertical integration can lead to lower costs, and a lower reliance on external parties.

[@unknowndestination6182]

fantastic video

[@maiyapena2286]

I am a bit familiar with vertical integration based on previous course I have taken. Specifically, backward and forward integration which is interesting to apply to actual companies who practiced it.

[@MaleghemiOmawumi]

Thanks alot It's helpful

[@shamarcravens9668]

A vertical integration strategy can deliver advantages, including greater economies of scale, lower variable production costs, decreased logistics costs and quality concerns and - yes - increased profitability.

[@anthonyhendricks27]

Appreciate you! Great video! 5/5

[@eduardoa7787]

By implementing vertical integration, companies can gain greater control over their supply chain, reduce costs, improve quality control, and increase efficiency. However, vertical integration can also be risky and costly, as it requires significant investment and may limit a company's flexibility.

[@freddymartinez3015]

This appears to be something that a company would hire a consulting firm to help them figure out. The concept of a fully integrated business appeals to me, but the risks are obvious. Even private companies like Dell use components from other companies in their computers.

[@kennedymulenga1700]

Very insightful.

[@Camithran]

This seems like something an organization would use a consulting firm to help figure out. I like the idea of a fully integrated business, but the risks are evident. Even private businesses like Dell use external company's components for their computers.

[@lekshmisunil885]

Thankyou
