rapid market growth, many new competitive entrants, new customers and repeat initial buyers, lots of profit gains, increasing product differentiation
|
|
maturity

-intense competition on all 4 P's
-clear fairly static segmentation -well-informed buyers -slowdown in new customers -no technological breakthroughs -repeat/replacement sales are key -squeeze out profits however possible (niche branding, differentiation on minor attributes, cost-cutting -market share is valued at least as much as profits |
|
decline

skim

|
penetration

|
Decision factors in skim vs. penetration
|

-compatability with existing practices -complexity -ability to try the innovation -observability of the innovation's benefits |
