Drop this question with Google: “what is the one oasis and double play strategy?”
You could receive this response: The “One Oasis and Double Play Strategy” is a business concept developed by Ndubuisi Ekekwe, which suggests identifying a single, high-quality product or service within a company (the “One Oasis”) that holds significant market value, and then strategically leveraging that product to gain an advantage in other related markets through a “Double Play” approach, essentially using the strength of one offering to bolster another, maximizing overall competitive positioning.
Key points about the strategy:
“One Oasis”: This refers to identifying the one standout product or service within a company that is considered superior in its market, like a vital oasis in a desert, providing exceptional value to customers.
