In today’s competitive business environment, the pressure to grow is unrelenting. To stay relevant, a company must constantly seek new avenues for growth. If a company is not growing, it is inevitably declining by relinquishing its market position to the competition. The key aspects of managing growth—managing a company’s market position, managing sales growth, and managing product lines—are the focus of this note. The discussion of gaining and defending market position is complemented by an in-depth overview of three additional topics: managing disruptive innovation, identifying product–market growth strategies, and assessing the break-even rate of cannibalization. This note is an excerpt (Chapter 18) from Strategic Marketing Management: Theory and Practice by Alexander Chernev (Cerebellum Press, 2019).
