In this episode, Scott Becker discusses what he’s seeing highly successful companies do right now is double down on their core business while seriously committing to building new business.
Some successes and observations:
1. Amazon and Microsoft now make huge profits in the cloud business.
2. United Healthcare now makes more than half its revenues in the Optum business.
3. Google while dominating search has expanded greatly into cloud computing and YouTube.
4. Disney has maintained the parks business while growing out the Disney + business.
5. Twitter is still in the tweets business but still growing its fundamental business. Users up and revenues up.
6. Facebook is trying a major pivot but still heavily focused in the Facebook business.
