Deconstructing Google's Strategy: Will Google Eat Your Business Next?

From the moment I entered Starbucks, the startup founder I?ve been working with seemed anxious. Had locusts destroyed America?s Frappuccino fields...?? I?d never know. Before I could caffeinate he asked, ?Did you follow Google?s I/O announcements?? ?Do Beliebers follow Justin?? I deadpanned. Unamused, he continued, ?I think Google plans to get into our space. They could put us out of business.? As I talked him down from a mild case of Googlephobia, I flashed back to a dozen similar conversations with executives and entrepreneurs. It?s easy to get caught up in what Google is doing. But even revolutionary projects like Glass or Fiber reveal little about whether Google might enter your space. The more interesting discussion is why Google does things. Here?s my deconstruction of the strategy that makes one of the world's most innovative companies tick. And who knows, it might just help your business survive a Googlepocalypse.

Once largely limited for use among contractors and outdoor enthusiasts, the rough-and-tumble sport-utility vehicle somehow morphed into becoming the de facto American family car during the 1990s and grew increasingly civilized throughout the 2000s. Small SUVs in particular are demand these days as amenable alternatives to compact ? even midsize ? sedans, offering generous passenger and cargo room at still-affordable prices.
