Hi Pepijin, I really appreciate all the work you've done on BCG, the 5-forces and SWOT models. Easy to listen, well-explained and the most important - each model was summarized by you with comments, examples and well-explained application. Great job! Your presentations and Excel spreadsheets are clean and user-friendly. I enjoy my learning process thanks to your posts.

[@PepijnSchoemakerWebinars]

Thank you!

[@PeterSenna]

Best SWOT analysis explanation available!

[@phillymissi]

Pepijn - Thank You for the refresher, i'm doing business finance and our cases studies are loaded with SWOT, Porters 5, and predictive financials (Pro-Forma) alternatives for the business, we were all taught briefly in different classes. You have saved me from a few boring .pdf files, your magnificent!! salute

[@lthimself614]

Gosh, i just realised I never really understood how to use SWOT until I watched this video. I love your videos pepijn. Thank you.

[@robertvanroon2128]

Pepijn, thxs so much! I've been searching all over the internet for a clear explanation. Your explanation did it ++ 😃

[@envyfashiongroup8388]

Recently came across your channel and love everything i've seen so far. I'm currently doing my CIM and you are a huge help. Keep posting 😊

[@aditisaxena2279]

Thanks! There is so much more in SWOT Analysis than just writing four points under each heading. Nicely Explained!!

[@karlguenther4298]

Pepijin, having prepared and listened to many SWOT presentations over the years. I had always felt there was a key missing factor in the analysis and call to action. The Confrontational Matrix you have described, is that missing element that distills the observations and leads to a supporting operation plan. Thank you for this insight!

[@rovercoupe7104]

Brilliant. The SWOT is rarely done properly. Thank you for showing us how it should be done. I wouldn’t bother with “The fact that the competition...”, just write “The competition is highly active...”. If you could have some sort of number to justify the word ‘highly’ such as “The competition has increased advertising by 20%...” it would be even better. Anyway, I love your work and, if you have not done one already, I would to see a five forces. I have just written one on American Express and I would love you to show me how it is done properly. M.

your videos saved my life for the exams. thx! 😭

[@magonajonah]

Beautiful explaining!

[@daanjoppe5643]

Bedankt voor het maken van deze video. Het was heel leerzaam.

[@Asil0831]

Hello, Pepijn: Out of all the videos I watched this evening, yours is unique in that you expanded upon SWOT with the Confrontation Matrix. I shared this with my class and am excited to try this out tomorrow night while drafting my final assignment for my current Business Strategy class. Well done. Thank you.

[@PepijnSchoemakerWebinars]

[@MsWatchdog]

I am totally lost here, but I understood how he wrote them down.. I think I would have to watch this vlog several times before I get it!... but it is a really good way to simplify overall not only in business but also your own personal way of studying.. so I think I am on the right step... but will have to watch this again again to get it down properly

[@nomalungazwane8]

hey Mr. you good at what you doing keep it up

[@igorstojiljkovic3435]

I have my business analysis and decision making Exam on Monday and you sir are the reason I will pass! I just have one question. Do you maybe think you could do a video talking about Peter Druckers view on the economist model? Thanks!

[@PepijnSchoemakerWebinars]

Igor Stojiljkovic Thank you for your kind words. I can't remember Drucker invented any business or strategic model which is used all over the world at business studies? It's more his view on existing models. I try to focus on models in strategic marketing planning. Ansoff is the one that's coming up. But thank you for the input!

[@kimberlie5673]

Your work is still helpful.

[@anirudh6920]

Thank you so much for your videos, these are really helpful. I will be very thankful to you if you could please make one on BSC (Balanced Score Card).

[@PepijnSchoemakerWebinars]

Anirudh thank you. I will consider this after my summer break!

[@anirudh6920]

Thanks a lot.

[@godwinprojectmanagement]

Hi, thanks for this video. Its really great! How do I get all your previous videos. I also want to know the relationship between the confrontation matrix and BCM.

[@PepijnSchoemakerWebinars]

You can just click on my picture and find all the video's there. What is the BCM?

[@vjpereyraster]

Brilliant presentation, thank you very much, can I have the slides of your presentation?, what you would do in a case of a company which seems to be the leader of a market, technology, staff, communication and media, seems to be emerging of a consolidation process, thanks again!

[@PepijnSchoemakerWebinars]

Thank you! I am sorry but I don't share the slides. You can offcourse make your own version/interpretation of them if you like. Your other question is impossible to answer without knowing the whole businesscase.

[@SMLtd23]

Dont know what I would do without your webinars so worth watching (big thumb up) does threat and weakness common boxes always get -/- ?

[@PepijnSchoemakerWebinars]

Thank you so much Muhammad for your kind words...! And spread the word to your friends! Regarding your question; Yes, and no. To be precise: Not nescessarly a box gets a minus. And, not nescessarly a dubble minus either. I think what you mean: 'is it possible such a box gets a plus?' That's not possible I guess. If you have an issue there in that corner, it would be a negative one. Does this answer your question?

[@SMLtd23]

Absolutely answer my question and as a matter of fact you corrected my question too :) Thank you. So far I have not got any +/+ which is worrying I wish I could show you my results

[@aminensangou6993]

Thanks

[@padmaladon8739]

Could you please do a video on SWOT-AHP (Analytical Hierarchy Process) analysis, as in my field, the combined analysis is really helpful for research? This video is very well explained. Thank you.

[@Gig260]

Hoi Peppijn, ' Weer bedankt voor deze duidelijke uitleg. Ik denk dank zij jouw uitleg van alle modellen ga ik slagen voor mijn strategisch marketing examen. Ik heb wel een vraag over de confrontatiematrix en de centrale vraag. In mijn boek staat iets van de vier kwadranten in de SWOT matrix: Sterkes/ kansen --> aanvallen Sterktes / bedreiging -> verdedigen Zwaktes / kansen -> versterken Zwaktes / bedreiging -> terugtrekken Wat hebben die vier 'acties' te maken met de centrale vraag? Alvast bedankt, Nicole

[@PepijnSchoemakerWebinars]

Hi Nicole, sorry voor de late reactie. De 'vier acties' hebben geen enkele link met het centrale probleem (liever centraal probleem dan centrale vraag... Dat is namelijk iets anders). Vanuit je negatieve key issues (de dubbel minnen, die bijvoorbeeld komen uit 'rechts onder') wordt het centrale probleem geformuleerd. De 'acties' gebruik ik eerlijk gezegd niet echt. Links boven is vaak een oplossing. Maar liever de 'dubbel plussen'. Alle issues zijn aandachtspunten, ongeacht uit wel 'vak' of kwadrant ze komen. Ok?

[@Gig260]

Hoi Peppijn, Dank je ! Dank zij jouw uitleg is het onderdeel nu iets duidelijker dan in het Nima boek beschreven.

[@PepijnSchoemakerWebinars]

Graag gedaan!

[@cbajaj1]

Hi , Great Video . Please share video on Knowledge Management

[@PepijnSchoemakerWebinars]

cbajaj1 Wouldn't know how to make a video on that... 🤔

[@ttgg8922]

the best swot ever

[@vipulgarg4369]

Please share video on Balance Scorecard

[@bert.hbuysse5569]

Thank you, Pepijn! Especialy for someone whose mothers tongue is not English, it is very impressive to give a presentation like this. Just one question; with the Four possibilities, with number 1. Highly active competition vs motivated staff. You say this has no connection whatsoever , however is it not arguable that having well motivated staff might give you the uperhand when it comes to winning or gaining on the competition? I would say that example fits the '0' example more. Am I wrong?

[@PepijnSchoemakerWebinars]

Zero would be ok. But you almost fell in the 'trap' by trying to find something everywhere. My message is: Be very, very picky on every crossing. Only those, which immediately 'sound' like a S,W,O,T are 'issues'.

[@bert.hbuysse5569]

Thanks, Pepijn!@@PepijnSchoemakerWebinars

[@benjaminbarnabas8655]

Someone to help me please answer this Using SWOT analysis analyse the factors in the environment that one has to consider before starting a business

[@blueoceantravelconsultinga6832]

Portal five forces with PESTEL OR STEEP MODEL

[@sabeshhardy]

Jeez I thought SWOT analysis the difficult until saw this video

[@PepijnSchoemakerWebinars]

To find the right SWOT's is still a challenge, but for the rest it's pretty straight on. Good luck!

[@sabeshhardy]

Can you please explain the 6 sigma in a short video ? Thanks

[@dr.walidsoula]

thx for the video , can you share your excel doc for SWOT analysis plz , that would be great

[@PepijnSchoemakerWebinars]

Basis zeus No sorry... It's not thst hard to make though. Thanks for watching!

[@dr.walidsoula]

thx anyway , sorry for that request , it was stupid , i was in a hurry , but i make it mine with 5 points . keep going for you video , i suggest ADL matrix for your next video :)

[@PepijnSchoemakerWebinars]

Basis zeus Try to keep your SWOT to 4 items per element max. 3 is even better. This forces you to focus on the items which are really, really important. I stress this in my video aswell. 5 is to much... Good luck!

[@dr.walidsoula]

thx for the advice i will put 4

[@tamerakkad9129]
