Porter’s 5 Competitive Forces →
Porter identifies 5 competitive forces that determine the attractiveness of a market or market segment (in terms of ability to earn longterm profits).
These are CEBSS:
CEBSS
Competitors, Potential Entrants, Buyers, Suppliers, Substitutes
Industry competitors →
a market segment is unattractive if it already contains many strong or aggressive competitors
Potential entrants →
you have to take into account barriers to entry and exit. The most attractive market segment has high entry barriers and low exit barriers so that new firms
can enter, while poor performing firms can exit easily.
Buyers →
A segment is unattractive is the buyers possess strong or growing bargaining
power
Suppliers →
A segment is unattractive if the company’s suppliers are able to raise prices or reduce quantity supplied.
Substitutes →
A segment is unattractive when there are many actual or potential substitutes for a product.
3 main variables when analyzing a competitors’ strengths and weaknesses:
Share of market → target market share
● Share of mind → The percentage of customers who named the competitor responding to
the statement, “Name the first company that comes to mind in this industry.”
● Share of heart → The percentage of customers who named the competitor in responding
to the statement, “Name the company from which you would prefer to buy the product.”
Important to categorize competitors as:
● Strong versus weak
● Close versus distant → Most companies compete with rivals that resemble them the
most, yet it is also important to recognize distant competitors (i.e. Cocacola’s
close competitor is Pepsi, but its top competitor is really tap water, not Pepsi).
● “Good” versus “Bad” → i.e. plays by the industry rules or does not.
Position Defense →
occupying the most desirable market space in consumers’
minds.
Flank Defense →
be aware of weaknesses in your brand and defend against attack in those areas. For example, if you are very high quality but force customers to pay a price premium for that, you are vulnerable from attack on the price side of things. Be prepared!
Preemptive Defense →
a good offense is the best defense. Strike first to disable
your rival.
Counteroffensive Defense →
When attacked, attack back.
Mobile Defense →
Continually expand and broaden your market so that you stay one step ahead of your competitors.
Contraction Defense →
Large companies sometimes must recognize that they can no longer defend all their territory. The best course of action is a planned and strategic contraction to focus more resources on a smaller market.
Frontal attack →
Let’s say you have a dominant product B and a challenger A. A attacks B. B talks about cavity protection, and A ALSO talks about cavity protection.
Flanking →
Dominant player B. Dominant challenger A finds a GAP and tries to occupy
it. This is the flanking strategy. An example here is GSK (Aquafresh). Can’t fight Crest directly, so we will get into the space of oral care by creating Sensodyne and occupying the gap of gum protection and gum health. Flanking your competitor by recognizing and
exploiting a market weakness.
Encirclement Attack →
Encircle dominant player B by a “blitz” of marketing activity. You have to have VERY deep pockets in order to do this. A good example is Kindle challenging the iPad
Bypass Attack →
The lead player is too big, so I’m gonna look at other categories and make my mark out there. For example, Pepsi starts to diversify into food items because Coke is too dominant in the cola market.
Guerilla Warfare →
Small, intermittent attacks. Examples are: Trader Joes going against Wal Mart or other bigger chains.
Counterfeiter →
duplicating the leader’s product and package and selling it on the black market.
Cloner

Examples are FruityO’s versus Fruit Loops Cereal.
