Humans thrive on the ever-occurring changes in society. We enjoy those changes and always look for other ways to remodel something that already exists. This is what makes humans unique. Similarly, for a business to succeed, it must constantly evolve. It should also produce something new and innovative occasionally. Some evolutions went as far as changing an industry forever. These generally go by the name ‘disruptive brands’. This blog will list some of the famous disruptive brands that changed their business sector forever.

Your Voice Counts!

1. Apple:

Apple has a reputation for bringing new and unprecedented challenges for its competitors. It has managed to stay atop of all mobile brands since it started rolling out iPhones. They successfully combined telecommunications, entertainment, and other productivity functions in the same device in 2007. This made many of their products, like the iPod, redundant. It brought a new product that changed the course of the telecom industry forever.

2. Tesla:

Whatever Elon Musk does end up being a disruptive idea that changes the market. Tesla is no exception. Even though many other companies had electric cars in their catalogue, they could never reach the sophistication of a Tesla. It has all the features to make the user feel safe and comfortable. While also delivering the necessary performance. This set the bar up high for other electric vehicles. It also pushed other car manufacturers to start innovating on environmental-friendly electric vehicles.

3. Airbnb:

We cannot create a list of disruptive brands and leave out Airbnb. It is an understatement to say that Airbnb changed the way hotels and tourism works. The brand has its roots worldwide, with customers trusting places listed on Airbnb more than any other place. Moreover, it created an opportunity for every room provider to obtain a level of standardization.

4. Uber:

Uber is a ride-sharing service that managed to reduce fares and improve the accessibility of cabs. You can easily find nearby cabs using their app and ride to your destination in the fastest way possible. Also, Uber introduced many safety regulations to keep their customers from any danger. For someone looking to make extra cash with their vehicle, it is fairly simple to register with Uber and get started. Hence, all it did was connect the customer to the optimal solution, making rides smoother, modern, and safer.

Disruptive Brands

5. Netflix:

Netflix is undoubtedly one of the most disruptive brands that made a massive impact on many industries. It changed many things simultaneously, like how films get released and how consumers find movies to watch. Before the advent of such a streaming service, all we did was buy digital copies of individual movies. Netflix reduced the cost of watching films and cut down all intermediary things in the process. It delivered the entertainment content directly through streaming. They carefully targeted people who were looking for an easy way to watch movies and series.

Now, Netflix itself is a production hub that produces many original films and shows that gain an audience worldwide.

6. Amazon:

Even before Amazon, we were able to buy products online. But, they weren’t as efficient or as reliable as Amazon. Amazon disrupted the way products reach customers. They cut down unnecessary intermediaries and managed to provide an optimal price for all products. Also, the products listed on Amazon gathered a global audience for the brands and their products.

Amazon has everything from groceries to clothing accessories. It is like shopping in a mall from the comfort of your home. Furthermore, online shopping became the go-to option for people with busy life schedules. So, it is safe to say that Amazon changed the way shopping works forever.

7. Visa:

If you suddenly feel grateful for having a credit card system, you should thank VISA. It was initially introduced in California but spread across the world within a decade. It revolutionized the financial industry forever. With credit cards, people are now able to buy with credits rather than cash. Visa detangled the complication of the credit system, making it easy for ordinary people to use it wisely.

8. FedEx:

We have a lot of international deliveries happening in a short period these days. It is mainly because of the pioneer FedEx. Its founder decided to find the inefficiencies in the global courier system and replace it with a faster alternative. Now, when we have to deliver something real quick, we just FedEx it. It has even become a verb that stands for quick and faster delivery of goods. We should all thank FedEx for the invention of express delivery.

Conclusion

Another thing that these disruptive brands have in common is they figured out a simpler way to do things. Finally, at the heart of every disruptive brand, some people had an out-of-the-box idea. Who knows? You could be the face of the next disruptive brand.
