【經濟學人簡單學】 在感情上你是 Netflix and Chill 派還是 Hulu and commitment 派呢?
最新一期的經濟學人專題討論了在影音串流平台如Netflix、Disney、HBO、Hulu 的「戰國時代」,投資者不斷挹入資金、巨頭們不斷出新招想要獨佔鰲頭的背景下,也有哪一些風險需要注意。
在美國的歷史上,有歷經幾次投資潮,像是 1860 年代的鐵路建設潮 (the railways in the 1860s)、1940年代的底特律汽車工業投資潮 (Detroit's car industry in the 1940s) 等等。而如今,娛樂產業 (the entertainment industry) 成了另外一項可能讓人「發大財」的源頭。
就在過去的五年間,光娛樂產業就花了至少6500 億美元在收購與製作節目。而這樣的狂潮 (binge),普遍被認為是過去20年創新型破壞所累積出的結果。
In total the entertainment business has spent at least $650bn on acquisitions and programming in the past five years. This binge is the culmination of 20 years of creative destruction.
目前在影音串流媒體市場的競爭市場的玩家包含了 Netflix、Disney、AT&T Time Warner、Comcast 和其他小型的公司。另外儘管他們整體的市場佔有率更不高,但有三個科技公司也相當活躍,分別是 Youtube、Amazon、以及Apple。
The contenders include Netflix, Disney, AT&T Time Warner, Comcast, and smaller upstarts. Three tech firms are active, too-\-\Youtube (owned by Alphabet), Amazon, and Apple, although their collective market share is still small.
也因為這樣的激烈競爭 (fierce competition),消費者成了最大的受益者,有個更多更好的選擇,可以更便宜地享受串流媒體的服務(基本上都低於一個月15美元)。像在去年,串流媒體製作了496個節目 / 電影,已經是2010年的兩倍。而製作的品質也一直在提升,這從串流媒體製作的節目、電影所得到的提名數以及情節的多樣性發展中,都可以看到。
Consumers have more to choose from at lower prices and can pick from a variety of streaming services that cost less than $15 each. Last year 496 new shows were made, double the number in 2010. Quality has also risen, judged by the crop of Oscar and Emmy nominations for streamed shows and by the rising diversity of storytelling.
雖說還是會有人擔心一味地討好消費者,最終會以悲劇作結。美國歷史上就有兩個血淋淋的例子。當今以服務品質差且價格高的寡頭壟斷電信產業及航空業,就是在 1990 年代歷經激烈競爭後因資金緊張,最終歷經合併後所導致的結果。
History offers two dispiriting examples of how a consumer-friendly boom can turn into a stitch-up. Telecoms and airlines in America saw a riot of competition in the 1990s only to become financially-stretched and then reconsolidated into oligopolies that are known today for poor service and high prices.
但對於我們來說,似乎不用想那麼多。我還是打開Netflix,繼續 binge watch 我的 How to get away with murder!

2️⃣ 當人家說要 Netflix and chill 時,通常不是只是「蓋棉被純聊天」,看看電影聊聊天而已,通常帶有性暗示。同時也有 Hulu (另外一個串流平台) and commitment 的有趣用法,相較於 Netflix and chill 認真許多,是在找穩定的另外一半。
Nick: Wanna Netflix and chill?
Rene: I'm looking for something more serious. I want Hulu and commitment.

【Elephants vs Flies: Building a $100M Business】
Conventional wisdom defines ~$100M in annual revenue (or an equivalent metric depending on the business) as the coveted benchmark before a startup can consider going public. But to get there, it's crucial to first understand what type of "animals" you are hunting.
Let's look at two ends of the spectrum:
Hunting 1,000 Elephants @ 100k each
Most of the giant SaaS businesses we all know and love today such as Salesforce attribute the bulk of their revenues to a relatively handful of large corporate customers. With this class of customers, building a $100M business entails only locking in 1,000 customers at $100k each. It may sound like a sizable chunk of money, but a contract of this size amounts to pennies on the dollar for many Fortune 1000 companies.
That said, the challenge then comes when trying to navigate the long, complex, and often meandering enterprise sales cycles. Large corporates are also less likely to work with seedling startups, with untested products/services, as even minute-long outages can mean millions of dollars lost.
Hunting 10M Flies @ $10 each
In order to get 10M active users, you're probably looking at a ballpark of ~100M downloads or general users of your product/service. Obviously, factors including but not limited to churn, engagement, and conversions will impact the ultimate arithmetic, but needless to say you'd need to be catering to a hefty # of users achieve $100M in ad revenue.
This will likely entail a degree of virality and network-effects, likely driven from some sort of social element or user-generated content, which also collectively lead to strong SEO.
Both cases--and everything in between--are certainly simplistic in nature. And every company and industry has its nuances. But overall these examples provide founders a holistic, back-of-the-envelope framework that enables them to think about long-term objectives and map out the trajectory, necessary milestones, and key hires in reverse.
