What are some examples of companies that have successfully implemented the classical strategy as described in 'Your Strategy Needs a Strategy'?

Some examples of companies that have successfully implemented the classical strategy include Procter & Gamble, Coca-Cola, and McDonald's. These companies have a clear understanding of their market and competition, and they execute their strategies in a step-by-step manner, much like creating a still-life painting. They analyze their industry to determine market attractiveness, the basis of competition, and their own firm's position, then execute step-by-step until their strategy is complete.
