Imagine you have to go from Bangalore to Leh (Vision). In order to go their you may take a car, bike, train, aeroplane or walk. Depending on your customer's needs (co-passengers) and competencies (your skills) and resources/constraints (eg driving skill, physical fitness, time at hand, money to spend) you will have to choose a method ( eg I want journey to be comfortable or I want journey to be as fast as possible or I want the journey to be as adventurous as possible). This choice and why this choice makes sense is what is called Product strategy. We will take a train (1st class) as we want to see the countryside but want the journey to be super comfortable.
