What This Video Is About
Kaplan has adopted a unique market strategy by operating in small, often neglected markets, such as Guatemala, which has a population of 17 million people, smaller than that of Mumbai.
Major Ideas Discussed
- Kaplan's target markets are characterized by small population sizes and are often overlooked by other companies due to their size.
- Despite their small size, Kaplan has successfully established a significant presence in these markets.
- The company's financial performance in these markets is notable, with a gross margin of 60% and an AITA margin in the high 30s.
- The use of Guatemala's population as a reference point highlights the relatively small scale of Kaplan's target markets, with Mumbai's population being larger for comparison.
What to Watch Next
Investors should monitor Kaplan's continued performance in these small markets, as well as any potential expansion into new, similarly sized markets, to assess the long-term viability of their business strategy.
