About our red ocean and blue ocean slides

What the slide does, how to use it, your brand, and a file you can edit anywhere.

Built to show why you’re leaving the crowded market

W. Chan Kim and Renée Mauborgne introduced the idea in their book Blue Ocean Strategy. Red oceans are existing markets, where companies compete on price and features until margins shrink. Blue oceans are markets nobody has defined yet. A red ocean vs blue ocean strategy slide sets the two side by side, so the audience sees why your move is about creating demand, not winning a bigger share of it.

Why the contrast makes the strategy clear

Describing a new market on its own can sound vague. Placed next to the crowded market it escapes, it becomes concrete. The audience sees the price wars and look-alike products on one side and the open space on the other, and the reason for the strategy explains itself.

Brand the whole presentation in one click

Add your logo, colors, fonts, and background once. It applies to the whole presentation and the entire slide library at the same time. Ocean strategy slides go into strategy offsites, pitches, and innovation reviews, so once branded, they match the rest of your strategy presentation.

You get a real file, not a locked link. Export it and keep editing in the tool you already use. Both sides and every point stay editable, so you can sharpen the contrast as your strategy develops.
