This was infinitely more helpful than the Player’s Guide and got us off on a really good foot. By the time the other groups figured out how to play, we were already miles ahead.

Your overview was super helpful. Took my company from 5th place out of 7 to first place winning by +6 in only 5 years. Ditched the cost leadership strat early and went with 50 models offered at high price (top left corner of Comparative Competitive Efforts) and then focused the rest of production into private label. Worked great and couldn't have done it without your in-depth overview of BSG and tips! Thanks a lot!

Some things to consider would be improved working conditions, TQM and Best Practices to zero if you haven’t already (be sure to get your S/Q rating back to where you want it), you can drop retailer support to zero if it greatly helps EPS.

Hi Derek! Congrats on your video, it helped me a ton and i didn't have to continue reading the guide. I have two questions: 1) We are in Year 13 and we are 1st. We aim for high S/Q rating high model, right up corner. Is it ok to make 100% superior materials and what about price?We are at 70$ on the wholesale and we are afraid that if we raise it maybe we will lose a lot of market share.Most of the competition is on the right bottom. 2)Our game lasts until year 16. The remaining of the 10 year loans will be subtracted in the last year? Thank you in advance!! Keep up helping MBA students!
@DerekBarnick Жыл бұрын
100% sup mats probably isn’t the wisest idea. There will be a good mix of materials to use. Do you think higher quality shoes should be priced higher than low quality shoes? I do. You may lose a few customers but the price increase will cover those losses. Loans will stay past your final year. They don’t have to be all paid off.
@silviossilvestros6708 Жыл бұрын
@@DerekBarnick Sounds logical. I have one more question, we are gonna bid a lot in celebrities cause we only have 1 and it surely effects our total image. If we end up buying 3 more in year 13, and the total average is near 250 in every area, does it effect the number of sales in year 13? I mean in decision year 13, shall we try have more surplus in shoes than 30pcs, hoping that we are gonna get 3 more celeb. and the sales will skyrocket? Does it make sense? Also the amount paid to celebrities each year is it incorporated in the projected numbers? I think no because the game doesn't know if you are gonna end up buying them or not, right? BIG THANKS for the quick response and for helping! You are the best!!
@DerekBarnick Жыл бұрын
It helps increase demand if used in conjunction with advertising. 300 is the max per area, there is a diminishing return after 200 in each area. They won't go into effect until the next year, so be prepared to build more equipment, but you don't need more leftover shoes. They will collect dust so to speak and depreciate. Sales could skyrocket, but there are many other variables that need to be considered as well. Celebs are not incorporated into projections until they are won in the next year.

Similar to loans in real life other than interest is paid the year after the loan is taken and continually until the loan is paid off.

Are all Year 11 similar or they are different
@DerekBarnick2 жыл бұрын
It all depends on what your competition does. For example, I have seen some industries raise average wholesale prices in Y11 $4 and others only $1.

My group strategy is to have low models at 50 and high cost shoes to stay in teh top left corner of the competitive chart, with this strategy it looks as if our total branded production needed is staying very low even at Year 14 at 6,400. Is this normal for our strategy or should we try to make it higher? Any advice you can give is greatly appreciated. Thanks

Low model strategy will typically have lower demand that usual, but not always. You can increase demand by using advertising, celebs, getting more retailer outlets, paying above average retailer support, and many other things to improve your demand. Market share is good, but profit is much better.

My projected inventory surplus is all negative numbers in year 15! How do i turn this around?!
@DerekBarnick Жыл бұрын
Probably because NA equipment is gone and you aren’t making as many shoes as you used to make. Rebuild equipment.
