#88 Sonos - Business Design Teardown

Can you hear that? It’s the sweet sound of another business teardown, this time focused on a company that’s all about great listening experiences…. Sonos!

From slick unboxing and setup to seamless connectivity, Sonos has designed a product experience that is the envy of the hardware world. But is it the envy of the business world, too?

In this episode, Alen, Franz, and Tom take a deep dive into the strategy, brand, and financials behind one of the design world’s most admired brands. We discuss:

  • How a brave bet on WiFi connectivity set the scene for Sonos’s future success

  • Why mass adoption of streaming was key to Sonos’s growth strategy

  • How Sonos can continue to fight its corner in the notoriously tough hardware market

  • Headphones, content, or business model innovation… where are the opportunities in Sonos’s future?
