Market Penetration—making more sales to present customers without changing products in any way. Market penetration means trying to increase sales of a firm’s present products in its present markets probably through a more aggressive marketing mix. The firm may try to strengthen its relationship with customers to increase their rate of use or repeat purchases, or try to attract competitors’ customers or current nonusers. New promotion appeals alone may not be effective. A firm may need to add a home page on the Internet to make it easier and faster for customers to place an order. Or, it may need to add more stores in present areas for greater convenience. 2). Market Development—a strategy for company growth by identifying and developing new markets for current company products (example, demographic markets). Market development means trying to increase sales by selling present products in new markets. Firms may try advertising in different media to reach new target customers. Or they may add channels of distribution or new stores in new areas, including overseas. 3). Product Development—a strategy for company growth by offering modified or new products to current markets. Product development means offering new or improved products for present markets. By knowing the present market’s needs, a firm may see new ways to satisfy customers. Computer software firms like Microsoft boost sales by introducing new versions of popular programs. 4). Diversification—a strategy for company growth by starting up or acquiring businesses outside the company’s current products and markets. Diversification means moving into totally different lines of business perhaps entirely unfamiliar products, markets, or even levels in the production-marketing system
