  2. For each of the four strategies, there is a coinciding risk level. The more newness that is added to the equation, the greater the risk. The safest being Market Penetration, followed by Market Development, Product Development and finally the riskiest strategy is Product Diversification.

  3. Increase a share in the current market with current products and secure dominance In a growing market, or change an existing market by driving out competition. There are minimal risks in market penetration. Market penetration is the strategy involving the least risk out of the four. However because risk is low, so is success. Penetration includes an increase of existing goods to an already existing market. You are essentially selling more of the same thing to the same people. Difficult if market is saturated. Success is achieved through multiple things. Increased sales to customers, attract customers from rivals, gaining market share at the expense of rivals and encouraging non buyers to buy. There are certain times to use it. Some are, when the market is NOT saturated, when there is growth in the market, competitors share in the market is falling and increased volumes lead to economies of scale. An example of market penetration is when Tesco increased its share of the grocery business during its competitors struggles.

  4. The aim of market development is basically to expand the market and customer base of a firm or company. Moderate risks come with Market Development. There is also a lack of familiarity with customers, but the product stays familiar. Selling the same product to a newer, expanding customer base or entering new markets with the same base. Basically gaining new customers with the same product. This will include changes to many different aspects of a firm, such as marketing strategies, new distribution channels, a different pricing policy and many others. Market Development is best used when untapped markets are beckoning, the firm has excess capacity and there are attractive channels to access a new market. An example of Market Development is when Tesco expanded into the convenience store market.

  5. Aim The aim of Product Development is to create new products for an already existing market. • Risks The creation of new products is usually quite costly and there are moderate risk levels associated. Probably the biggest risk is will this new product be successful. • Contents This could be new products to replace current older ones, new innovative products, product improvements or product line extensions. • How is it Achieved What makes Product Development easiest, is a strong Research and Development program, also known as R&D. Without this, it is very risky and has a lower success rate. • When to use it Companies usually utilize product development when they have strong Resource and Development capabilities, the market is growing and there is rapid change. • Examples Two examples are Tesco expanding petrol sales and the development of financial services.

  6. Aim The aim of this is to successfully sell new products to a new market, which means new products for new customers. • Risks Market Diversification is the riskiest of the four strategies because you’re dealing with two unknowns here; a new market and new customers. • Contents There are two main types of Market Diversification. Related and Unrelated. Related stays within confines of the industry but beyond the present market. Unrelated is a growth in products and markets that are completely new. • How is it Achieved It is achieved by putting new products into a new market to new customers. • When to use it Market diversification, like product development is best used when your firm have good R&D capabilities for the least risk possible. • Examples For Scottish Banks, selling insurance in England, could be seen as expanding its market with new products to new customers.
