Summary: | In today's competitive business landscape, Small and Medium Enterprises SMEs face challenges
in standing out and expanding their market reach. Traditional approaches like cost-cutting and price
competition may not be sufficient for sustainable growth. To overcome these challenges, SMEs can
adopt a Blue Ocean Strategy (BOS) to create uncontested market space and leapfrog the competition.
It involves finding and creating a new market space, rather than competing in existing markets, by
offering a unique value proposition that attracts new customers. This paper explores the key concepts
of the Blue Ocean Strategy and how SMEs can apply them to their businesses. It also presents case
studies of successful SMEs that have used the Blue Ocean Strategy to achieve significant growth and
profitability. These case studies show how SMEs can find new market spaces and create
differentiated value propositions to attract new customers, outcompete and outperform their rivals.
