Blue Ocean Strategy Disadvantages

Risk of Being in Business
Ceferino Dulay, Jr., Philippines, Member
Risk is always present in any business. The benefits one gets out of being "first mover" will really compensate the cost. Even a company that is not willing to take risk and stay in the red ocean is always at risk of being overwhelmed by competition. It's a matter of choice in the end. And of reducing the risk at every point and keeping your eyes wide open.

Blue Ocean Strategy Disadvantages: No Track Record
Yves Leduc, Consultant, Belgium, Member
I confirm risk is always present. In a "new" market, it may take longer time to convince your potential customers about the benefits of your product or service offer, even if it is obvious for all parties to go for a win-win. You have no "track record" yet as evidence of your ability to deliver.
