  • Many firms use a version of the SWOT analysis. This analysis looks at the internal strengths and weaknesses of a firm and develops strategies to improve them, while also focusing on the external opportunities and threats facing the firm. The model then helps firms develop strategies to take advantage of the opportunities and prepare for the threats.

    Microsoft Surface: We travel with a Microsoft Surface everywhere we go. I edit my videos on it & use it to backup my pictures and vides while we travel. It’s light and the best travel laptop on the market in my opinion.

    Lights: Mount Dog 18’ Ring Light Kit. It will light up your filming space so your videos will look clearer and film better. We started using it and it makes all the difference.

    Sony Alpha Camera: We use Sony Alpha series cameras to film our videos. They are compact so you don’t look like a super tourist when you take great pictures and videos while you film on location.

    Manfrotto Tripod: We use Manfrotto Tripods. They are compact, travel well, and honestly I would not use another tripod for my nice cameras.

    I've done so many SWOT analyses at multiple companies over the years and two things always happen.
    *_Strengths_* - The obvious strengths are easily identified but then people start listing opinions. "We provide the best customer service in our space." "Our employees work harder than our competitors." "We are the most trusted in the industry." I could go on, Mark but it's unbelievable how subjective truly intelligent people get when listing strengths.
    *_Weaknesses_* - Similarly, not only is it difficult to discuss weaknesses (as you pointed out), companies often cannot see them. Sometimes it's innocent. There's a daily culture of "we're great, we're great, we're the best, focus on competitive advantages, promote our strengths, stay positive!" Then when it comes to a SWOT analysis, everyone kind of scratches their heads on the weaknesses. Ha.
    I was headhunted to a company where everyone seemed brainwashed into thinking nothing they did was wrong and everything they did was golden. I'm shaking my head just thinking about those days.
    Great video as usual! 👍

      Thanks Tosh. I've done a few of these over the years and I would get a bit mean about it or more rude really when no one would be able to mention a weakness. It was like if they said it than it would be their fault it exists so no one said anything. So inwould lay out 4 or 5 weaknesses and explain why and then offer some suggestions and we would go from there. I just did this with my students for our marketing program and I just keep asking why is that. What do you mean. Just so I can gain more insight. Such a good tool when used correctly. Thanks again for the great comments today.

      Great comment. This has been my experience in all the jobs I've had. I was also headhunted by a company plagued with too much positivity. Some colleagues would desperately try to turn weaknesses into threats during SWOT sessions!

    I remember the acronym well from my days of working with a business coach. He had me complete a 1PSP (one page strategic plan) and these were at the top of the form. The one page was an 11x17 sheet to get it all to fit. It's been a while since I've updated it and I'll look to do so for the coming quarter. Thanks for the refresher!

    S = Strengths. At 2:00, after funny Fortnite comment, Professor Wolters says, "So when you have your strengths, you want to put down, 'How do I make that strength stronger?'" It's "forced association" with, and promise to "extinction-proof," Wikipedia and WikiLeaks (monetarily (percentage of profit) and with hyperlinking) is top-Wiki's greatest S (strength).
