Market

Market thinking is part of my strategic orientation. I treat the market as the ultimate referee. An idea is only as good as what the market actually pays for, uses, or recommends.

Why market matters

• It decides what Opportunity is real and what is imagined.
• It forces Strategic Thinking to meet reality.
• It rewards Taste, execution, and clear positioning.
• It filters out Performative Business Talk quickly.

How I read markets

• Where is demand actually growing?
• Where is Leverage concentrated?
• Which parts are oversaturated with Fluff and which have room for real operators?
• Where does my Competence and Taste give me a non-trivial edge?

These questions shape how Duodode positions itself and which clients are worth serious pursuit.

Markets he pays attention to

• Digital services and agencies
• AI Automation and AI-native tooling
• Ecommerce
• Product-led and founder-led businesses that need sharp Branding and real product work

What I avoid

• Markets driven almost entirely by hype
• Races to the bottom on price
• Spaces where Taste has no premium
