How to Maintain a Strategy in the Decline Stage
The product life cycle includes stages such as growth, maturity and decline. In each stage, businesses have to adjust their strategies to suit the needs of the market and the business environment. In the decline stage, businesses notice that sales begin to drop off for a product or service -- which may have once been popular -- due to low demand. There are several ways a business can create and maintain a strategy during the decline stage.
1.               We will survey customers to determine if they use our product in ways that other customer may find beneficial.
2.               We will add new features to our existing product. By adding new features we can potentially get former customers interested in our product again, or attract a market of new customers. Adding new features can be risky if the costs to add the features are high and we do not see a return on our investment.
3.               We will reduce our marketing expenses by only advertising the product to companies who have purchased the product in the past, to start. For example, we can segment our email-marketing list so that our email promotions for the product go to customers who have purchased it at least two times within the past six months. If we see a positive response, we may consider promoting the product to potential customers, especially if we've created a new use or added new features.
4.               We will stop manufacturing the product if sales continue to plummet, discontinue it and let the current inventory run down to zero. We may decide to offer a sales promotion to move the product more quickly, such 20 percent off purchases.
5.               We will identify companies who sell complementary or competing products, as they may have a similar target market, the marketing dollars to develop and promote the product or the research capabilities to make changes to it. We can sell our inventory to that company.
