Prepping for a BCG interview this was an excellent and easy to watch case study, which not only walked through all the key steps pertinent to the interview process but also displayed what the spirit and demeanor of the candidate should be. It really helped me get ready. Thanks guys!

you are great guys, very interesting case, funny, catchy, informative, and not pretentious. I have been watching many case interviews and I find all answers are very pretentious but also very simplistic thinking to solve a problem, more like economics for a 10 year old child

Great analysis! What came to mind though were why gangsters would own ice cream parlors.The logical explanation would be that they were washing their money through that business. The question then becomes, is there a need for exponential growth for the parlors as well in order to keep the laundering of money at a stable rate? What would be the need for expansion and growth if there were no way for the money to "come out the other side clean" so to speak. Given this, there are of course calculations to be made for further analysis but would love to get your take on this!

Great point! It's possible that the ice cream parlors were a vehicle for money laundering. It's also possible the parlors were used for commercial space or even to just have a presence in the community with some kind of legitimate business. That being said, let's assume it was for money laundering. The revenue chart could not take into account the money laundering that would go through the ice cream parlor since ice cream revenue is small; leading us to include it's their actual ice cream revenue. In moving to another area, they'd probably need to set up some type of additional money laundering scheme in the new area - ice cream or otherwise - as you pointed out. This could just become part of COGS where they have to take a 10% or so hit off the top - or even some combination of investment + variable cost. I'm sure their relationships in their new area would be able to handle this. This would be a great addendum to the case - great idea!!

The 20% growth is only in Chicago, a better question to ask would be whether the market in Newark has the same growth rate.. if not, you'd be on the losing end of the investment if the ROI is decreasing...

You both make this look easy man, but the difficult part sometimes is to be able to feel comfortable in front of somebody with poker face, l prefer if client makes faces or agree but a poker face is difficult to read on something that might be too subjective. 1. I would combine ice cream with alcohol :) , offer special ice cream at special cost . 2. Then of course loans for the casino giving out some upfront credit maybe? lol 3. Instead of 4 businesses reduce costs to manage onlyo 2 businesses, food and gamble with loans. Maybe creating a strategy, in which house always wins, like supermartingale of some sort for the casino, having a portfolio of debt from people as an asset for more loans, cut losses and expand icecream booz business. That'd be my crazy hypothesis :) awesome guys, thanks

Thanks for the explanations! I was actually honestly quite confused about the chart (size of the bubbles and their relationship to the x and y axes, the meaning of the alcohol bubble being bigger than the $10 million Chicago market size bubble, etc.), so I would not have been able to pick up on that insight because of the confusion. What's the best way to ask questions for understanding, and how much are you allowed to question the interviewer on the chart to understand it before you start looking bad?

I'd like to second the call for clarity on the bubble chart. Is it not that the size of the $10M bubble is the same as the value at which it sits on the x-axis? Does the bottom-right corner bubble not simply set the scale? That's different from saying the reason he has the whole market is because the bubble sizes match... if that were the case, how would you interpret the large bubble at $20M for alcohol? Would also love to see the x-axis labeled with the unit M (Millions).
@consultingconfidantcasepre25
@consultingconfidantcasepre25 6 лет назад
Great question. The x-axis and the size of the bubbles are actually showing different data. The x-axis shows Hal's revenue for that segment (yes, it is in millions and we should have labeled it more clearly).The size of the bubble is actually the market size for that product line in Chicago. Therefore, when the loan sharking bubble looks to be about 10M and Hal's revenue is about 10M, it implies that he actually has all of the market share.
@joenatale5513
@joenatale5513 6 лет назад
Haha thanks! Still not sure I'm on the same page because I came to the same conclusion about Hal's monopoly, but in a different way. Why would the reference bubble refer to only a specific product line? I think if I could understand that I'd be able to meet your logic.
@maksymmurzak3138
@maksymmurzak3138 6 лет назад
Hi guys, thanks for the video, really enjoyed it. Still struggling with the bubbles graph though. A couple of questions: 1. does the 10 mln limit apply to Loan sharking only or it is also related to alcohol? 2. It is not clear to me how to read the bubbles. For example, the alcohol one: should I consider the center point (20) as the X-axis value, or the distance between the left (17.5) and right (22.5) points? And the same with the y-axis coordinates...?
@yusukeurameshi9933
@yusukeurameshi9933 4 года назад
So the bubble represent the size of a market in chigaco. The size of the Loan sharking bubble represent the size of the loan sharking market in chicago. It's roughly the size of the bubble given as a reference so it's 10mil. The size of the alcohol is roughly 3 times the reference bubble so it's roughly 30mil. Same for the other two (5mil and waay less than a 1mil). Now that graph also provide the revenue from the client. For that you need to consider the center of the bubble along the x-axis. Loan sharking is roughly at 10mil so they have the monopoly. Alcohol is at 20mil so they have 66% of market share. And along the y-axis you have the growth predicition for each market independtly. So alcohol is expected to have the biggest growth. Hope it's clear enough
@mochen401
@mochen401 6 лет назад
great analysis! however, in most growth cases, I noticed they always start with profitability frame work and find out why the company isn't growing at 50% (in this case). In your analysis, we basically started with a list of potential recommendations, shouldn't we find the root cause first then make recommendation? In this case, Shaun is nice enough to guide David into an option to analyze, but what if the interviewer doesn't do this?
@consultingconfidantcasepre25
@consultingconfidantcasepre25 6 лет назад
Great point. I don't think you always need to start with a profitability framework in a growth case, especially in this example. The economics of what is currently happening wouldn't necessarily tell you what they could do to grow more. Some cases have a specific problem to diagnose, while others will want to look towards assessing an opportunity. You need to be flexible but they common theme is to test a hypothesis that ties to answering the question at hand, synthesize the answer, refine your hypothesis and continue on.

Would MBB interviewers bring up the 20% organic growth when interviewee draws a wrong conclusion? That 20% figure is key to the case question - if candidate fails to revisit that info, won't they just write that person off as being sloppy (though it's most likely nerves)? Taking into account the competition for jobs at these MC firms.

Question, why did you provide a solution before understanding the whole business? Ex. If I am going to analyze it, my response would be to ask before recommending. So before I'm going to provide the "organic and inorganic approach, or etc" I'll ask to separate each category first, ex. Alcohol - if you want to grow your business here, more what is the current situation of your alcohol business? it is illegal so what is the "law" in the places you are working on that could potentially ruin the overall business. Gambling - same with gambling, what is your current data etc etc, then once the data has been presented, that's when I will recommend, my key is understanding the past before going on to the future, what do you think of that approach? Sorry, I haven't finished watching I just realize that you recommended first before really knowing their current situation

Price increases dont actually make sense in terms of the question being asked. It dosen't ask how the firms can grow but how to increase 'sales'. It's basic economics that an increase in price would be moving away from the point of sales maximisation.

We cannot show a real case from any firm because real cases are the intellectual property of each respective firm. However, you can get a lot of the mechanics down and great practice by completing similar types of cases with a partner.

@yusukeurameshi9933
@yusukeurameshi9933 4 года назад
Well he exposed it in his analysis but he basically adapted a growth strategy case framework. As such he looked into the client market (in Chi), the client (Revenue streams) and then growth strategy. For the growth strategy he focused on expanding activities by going to newark. And then using this framework he adapted to the case.
