The book is structured to guide readers through the process of understanding and applying profit patterns. It starts by explaining the concept of pattern thinking, then introduces the 30 profit patterns, and finally provides a practical framework for integrating these patterns into strategic decision-making.

Slywotzky uses vivid examples and case studies to illustrate how companies like Disney, Bloomberg, and American Express have successfully leveraged profit patterns. These real-world applications help readers understand how to translate theoretical concepts into actionable strategies.
