Introduction
Rich Ponds
Let's Begin
This book has been developed over 4 years of research and trial and error.
This book is for anyone who wishes to own, start or analyze a business.
The basic premise of this book is ‘model-based thinking, which can be
universally applied to any kind of business, in any industry or economy.
The book has been designed using models that help understand critical
areas and break down businesses, both qualitatively and quantitatively.
The goal is to identify industries that are more attractive than others.
This book mainly focuses on
• Understanding the attractiveness of any given industry.
• Industry level value proposition, followed by broad industry analysis.
• Trends and practices in the industry, the evolution of the industry,
and industry-related risks and growth potential are then discussed
to know more about the industry.
• Facilitating decision-making regarding attractive industries or
what we call ‘rich ponds’ (potential fishing grounds) to find or start
businesses with above-average profitability.

Introduction
Rich Ponds
This book can be used by entrepreneurs and business
managers who actually carry out the business (whom we
call practitioners) to analyze their ideas, the business, and
the industry in which they operate. It will provide them
with a framework to analyze industries and a list of all
the important questions to ask. The ‘industry sheet’ will
help them identify the health of the industry. It can even
be used by investors and analysts to analyze their next
investment ideas.

Mismatch
To elaborate, there must be a product-customer fit or match i.e. you must
sell the right product to the right set of customers. For example, if you want
to sell a Kindle, you must find people who are active readers and not look
at the mass market.

However, another important factor is the perception of value, which is subjective across
different customers. Some customers may perceive a proposition to be very valuable
whereas others may not even consider that proposition, depending on their pains and
desired gains.

For example, while designing a car to be sold in the countryside, one must
take into consideration the needs of the customers. A luxury car may not
be as effective as a tough car with a high fuel economy and the ability to
ride on rough roads.

This is then compared to the segments being served by the business
to identify if the correct segments are being served.
Then the changes that could be made to the products to cater to
other potential segments are identified.
These changes would help the business serve more customers,
identify growth avenues and also make the product-customer fit
stronger.

Value Proposition
Customer Profile
Identify the different customer
segments
Entrepreneur/
Investor
For each customer segment,
understand their current pains, gains,
needs, wants, beliefs and so on.
Understand and observe what, why
and where they buy the products
and so on.
A detailed explaination will give a
detailed customer profile.
26
Value Proposition
Rich Ponds
The process of customer profiling is largely open-ended and subjective
to the analyst, but the underlying principle remains the same. Get as close
to the customers and the buying process as possible. Some of the effective
techniques to understand the customer better:
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
Questionnaires
Phone interviews of the customers
Phone interviews of the middlemen
Paid market research
Online surveys of the past
Videos on the lives of potential customer segments
Physical presence at the point of sales
Physical presence at the point of the utilization of the
product

Q
Q
How does the customer buy the product? What are the
variables they consider while buying?
What are the benefits and the major costs that the buyer
perceives while buying agrochemicals?
How are the buyers educated or trained? How do they receive
information about the products?
Do the customers buy mainly branded products or from
unorganised players? Why?
Is there any community pressure while making a purchase
decision?
Are the buyers confident about the use of agrochemicals?
How much certainity do they have about the outcome after
use?
Is the required agrochemical adequately available?
What are the payment terms for purchase by customers? Do
they pay on time?
These, along with other creative methods, can be used to collect
data to draft the customer profile. Insights related to customer
psychology should also be incorporated in the customer profile.

Rich Ponds
Apart from offering good
performance, premium cars
create a social status.
To some customers, this social gain is an important factor when a purchase decision
is being made. The creation of such gains creates a tremendous loyalty toward the
product and allows the brand to command a higher price.
Psychological Gains

These are the gains that are psychological in nature and they impact the customers’
preferences and behaviour.
These gains are different from social gains. Social gains
are approved by society and one person cannot alter what
is ‘accepted’. Whereas in psychological gains, the gains
are very much personal and approved by the consumer.
Products with such gains create immense attachment
and customer loyalty.

Proposition
Some products do not particularly focus on enhancing the gains created or the pains relieved,
but they focus on reducing the cost of consumption.
By saving costs, they pitch themselves to be of higher
value than their substitutes or similar products. In the
process of reducing cost, the product may let go of some
gain creators—the ones that are low on priority for the
customers and make a cheap alternative available.

Risks
Products or services that do not create any additional gain
or relieve pain but reduce the risk in consumption create
tremendous value for customers. The more severe the
outcome of the risk could be, the greater the value created and
the greater the ability of the business to demand a premium
for it, by reducing that particular risk.

Products and Services
However, products and services do not create value by
themselves. They must match the needs of targeted
customer segments.
FIT
For example, an iPhone may be the best smartphone there is,
but it is of very little value to someone who works on daily wages.
FIT
Cars may be a basic necessity to some, but they are of very little
value to the residents of a remote island or village, which has no
roads or fuel supply.

Gains, Pains & Rsiks

For existing businesses, products/services are pretty easy to identify. Each
has to be understood based on how it solves the customer pains and gains.
FIT
Existing Product/
Service
Existing Customer
Segment
Entrepreneurs must understand their product in and out and then try to
figure out if any changes could be made to the product to serve newer
segments of customers (other than existing customers).

Businesses can also try to serve existing customers better and demand a
higher premium from them. They must look for competitors that exist in
the market and understand how they create value for customers.
Microsoft Surface
Duo 2
Samsung Galaxy Z
Fold 4
Some offerings of these competitors that are important to the customers
may even be incorporated into the firm’s products.
All the propositions compete against each other and only
the strongest proposition gets bought. The strongest
proposition for each customer, the segment may vary but
it is only the strongest proposition that each customer
segment will buy.

The product development process involves developing a prototype, testing it with a
small trial group, making changes as per the feedback, and then testing marketing
followed by the launch. Businesses must look for customer feedback and continuously
monitor their experience and satisfaction. This must be done throughout the process
and even after the launch for incremental improvements.

Conclusion
A good understanding of the
customer requirements and a good
understanding of products - its
features is required. This should help
us understand the industry and its
various companies.
Also, all new ideas and products must be
checked in a similar manner under the ‘value
proposition map’ to see if they have a strong
cutomer-market fit or not.
Only ideas that pass this will
find a market for themselves.
‘Customer profile’
is the key.

How to create Profit Pool and
how to benefit from it?
The scope of value chain is decided.
It comprises of activities to be included in
the profit pool.
Next, size and profitability of each
activity is identified.
If exact value cannot be obtained, an
estimate is used.
It is then plotted on the graph to see
which activity is the more attractive
than others.
For more details, each activity
can be elaborated further.

Value chain analysis is a popular model for analysis
at the company level as well as indsutry level.
Firstly, whichever industry is selected, an industry
value chain must be created. This can be done
using a simple industry value chain framework or
the primary activities of Porter‘s value chain model.
Then one must identify the activities that are
critical to success in the industry.
Once this is done, a value chain must be designed
for individual companies in the industry.
Then analysts must compare and contrast the
individual value chains with each other and with
that of the industry.

negligible concentration risks
as it is well spread out over
products, geographies, and
industries.
ILF&S was running on an
asset-liability mismatch. It
was mainly because of longterm infrastructure projects

Indicators of Demand
Forecasting demand is an
exercise to collect cues
and trends from multiple
sources.
Then they are compiled
together to form an analysis
or forecast of the demand
from the end consumer.
These hints are indicators of demand and
they help the entrepreneurs stay ahead
of the demand.

This helps them decide how to adapt and
whether to participate in the substitute industry.

This will favorably influence the demand scenario for the firm. Also,
new products, new business models, and new value chains affect
the industry generally in an irreversible manner.
These changes can take away the demand from traditional

However, as new supply comes
up, the industry is no longer
in a state of undersupply, and
profitability reduces. This leaves
the firm in a weak spot, as, with
increased leverage and reduced
profitability, the firm finds it
difficult to operate efficiently
going forward.

Based on the answers to these questions, the analyst should
decide how much time it will take for undersupply to go
away. Based on this decision, the analyst must strategize
whether to participate or stay away from expansion when
all others are doing it.

Demand - Supply Scenario
for Indian Cement Industry -
Conclusion
• Demand growth outlook for cement
industry is stable and steady.
• There is no erratic or abrupt capacity
expansion planned going forward.
• As a result, capacity utilisation is expected
to improve going forward over medium
term.
• However, there can be cyclical or shortterm factors that affect the demand-supply
scenario in the short term. But, in the
medium term and long term, the balance
seems to be stable.
• However this can change as external news
comes so a constant tracking is needed.
Companies in the Cement Industry shall enjoy
increased profitability over the medium term. The
structural outlook for long term too looks stable.

Impact of Overcapicity-
Indian Automobile
Industry 2018-2019
Industry Scenario
• In 2018-19, the Indian automobile sector went through a deep
recession. An NBFC crisis in the country led to poor demand and
lack of financiers.
• Y-o-Y monthly sales had fallen by upto 30% for companies.
Signs to spot oversupply in industry
• Distribution channels filled with inventory.
• Deep discounts being offered to customers.
• All players in value chain - auto ancillaries, tyre manufacturers,
etc - negative about outlook.
Impact of the slowdown on the industry
• Companies did not initially reduce production. But once inventory had
pilled up, capacity utilisation had to come down.
• Fixed costs continued.
• Also, prices fell once discounts were offered.
• Automobile companies faced significant drop in profits in the short run.
Even though the structural outlook remained good, the companies were
struggling in the short term and medium term.

Another potential source of growth in the industry is the formalization of the industry. It is
seen that a part of the industry is served by the organised sector and the rest is served by

From unorganised

This shift is evident in industries such as the paint, apparel industry, and footwear.
Industries with a high share of unorganized players have an advantage for growth
vis-à-vis the organized industry due to the migration from unorganized to organized.

Estimating Market Size
Steps for determining the size of the industry:
1 Determining the boundaries of the industryactivity-wise and geography-wise.
2
Determine a time horizon i.e. monthly,
annual, or even for a longer horizon.
3
A population estimate for the
geographical area is established.
4
Once the population is known, a sample
survey is conducted to know the
adoption rate and the penetration rate.
5
These ratios are multiplied by the
population size to estimate the industry
size. This gives a primary estimate of
the industry size.

Based on the factors discussed above, the pricing power of various players in
the industry is understood. Entrepreneurs and analysts must look for industries
that command higher pricing power. However, it is difficult to enter such
industries. But once entry is established, the players can be highly profitable.

So, it is seen that Colgate India can increase prices over
and above their raw material's costs without impacting
their sales. Gross profit margins can be used as an indicator
to check pricing power in any industry. If GPM can be

True disruption happens when something displaces something else to create
something very new.
Harvard Business School professor and disruption guru
Clayton Christensen says that a disruption displaces an
existing market, industry, or technology and produces
something new, more efficient, and worthwhile. It is at once
destructive as well as creative.

Social Media Ads New Market Disruption
for Advertisers
• Traditional advertising was
expensive and could only be
done by bigger companies
with huge budgets.
• Social media allowed targeted
ads for as little as ₹200.
• It allows a completely new
set of users to access the
advertising market.
As social media allows an entirely new set of advertisers,
it creates a new market for the media industry, disrupting
what existed earlier with direct competition. As it creates
new users, it is a new-market disruption.
So, these are the different kinds of disruptions
that may take place. Before entering any
industry, we must evaluate the disruptive forces
acting on it. Lets now move on to understadning
regulations.

Competitor Analysis— is used.
Parts of interviews are identified, which
helps one understand the competitors’
goals, the strategy followed to get there,
competitors’ capabilities, which include
strengths and weaknesses, and lastly,
the underlying assumptions of the
management.
Once an understanding of different
players is achieved, the firm can decide
on the goals that they wish to achieve
and the strategies they wish to follow.
This is one of the critical exercises on being

If more volumes are produced, the fixed cost price unit

Inability to sell

Firms continue to
manufacture and sell,
despite reaching their
shutdown level, and
excess capacity tends to
stay with the industry.
This excess capacity
does not allow the
supply-demand situation
to turn more favorable,
and firms are forced
to compete in an
oversupplied market.

The study of the history of the industry helps entrepreneurs and managers in
the decision-making process. This happens in the following ways:
Ability to assess evidence and check
assumptions
The study of the industry's history allows entrepreneurs to make
concrete arguments based on a variety of data/evidence and put
together the most accurate picture of the past and present. Such databacked research allows the entrepreneurs to verify the correctness of
assumptions that they had made earlier.[31]
Ability to assess conflicting interpretations
Evaluating an industry’s history means sorting through
HMZIVWI ERH SJXIR GSRƽMGXMRK MRXIVTVIXEXMSRW VIKEVHMRK
business models and value propositions. Examining past
situations provides entrepreneurs the ability to be a critic
of different approaches and understand the behavior of the
industry more objectively. [31]
Experience in assessing past
examples of change
Experience in assessing past examples of
change is vital to understanding changes in the
industry today. Comparing particular changes
with relevant examples from the past helps the
entrepreneur to understand the magnitude and
