Economics
A vision for the economics of a firm or industry. This includes new business models, pricing models, cost models and attention economics. For example, a solar panel firm that has a vision to reduce the cost of a product from $1000 to $50 such that demand will jump and solar will displace other forms of energy based on its superior economics.Brand
Visions based on brand recognition, brand image and reputation. For example, a small organic beverage company with a vision to displace far larger firms to become a household name recognized by billions of consumers.Customer Experience
A vision for your customer experience such as a theme park that envisions attractions and shows that are like stepping into a movie. Customer experience includes elements such as usability, services, design and quality.Quality

Quality simply means that your products are fit for purpose such that they meet customers needs and delight customers based on their preferences and perceptions. For example, a sushi restaurant that seeks to reinvent fine cuisine with innovative techniques and ingredients inspired by tradition.Competitive Advantage
