Differentiation Business Level Strategy
Key Criteria
Value provided by unique
features and value characteristics
Command premium price
High customer service
Superior quality
Prestige or exclusivity
Rapid innovation
Differentiation Business Level Strategy
Requirements
Value provided by
unique features and
value characteristics
Command premium price
*
Constant effort to differentiate products through:
Developing new systems
and processes
High customer service
Superior quality
*
Shaping perceptions through
advertising
Prestige or exclusivity
*
Product R&D capabilities
*
Maximize Human Resource
contributions through low
turnover and high motivation
Rapid innovation
Differentiation Business Level Strategy
Effectiveness with Differentiation grows out of
Value Chain activities
Examples:
Heineken beer
Raw materials
Steinway pianos
Raw materials & Workmanship
Mercedes Benz autos
Technology and Workmanship
Intel microprocessors
Technological superiority
Caterpillar tractors
Service buyers’ needs quickly
anywhere in the world
Focused Business Level Strategies
Focused
Business Level
Strategies
involve the
same basic
approach as
Broad Market
Strategies
Opportunities exist because:
*
Large firms overlook
small niches
*
Firm lacks resources to
compete industry-wide
*
Serve narrow market segment more effectively than
industry-wide competitors
*
Direct resources to certain value chain activities to
build competitive advantage
“Outfocused”
The Major
Risks involved
with a Focused
Differentiation
Business Level
Strategy
Large competitors enter
niche market
Preferences of niche market
change to those of broad
market
Focus
Examples of Differentiation Focus: any successful niche
retailers; (e.g. The Perfume Shop); or specialist
holiday operator (e.g. Carrier)
Strategy - Cost Focus
Here a business seeks a lower-cost advantage in just
on or a small number of market segments. The
product will be basic - perhaps a similar product to
the higher-priced and featured market leader, but
acceptable to sufficient consumers. Such products
are often called "me-too's".
Examples of Cost Focus: Many smaller retailers
featuring own-label or discounted label products.

Integrated Low Cost/Differentiation Strategy
Firms using an Integrated Strategy:
Dual Strategic Emphasis:
•Upscale product
•Competitive pricing (“best value”)
Flexible Manufacturing Systems
Information Networks across multiple business
units
Total Quality Management (TQM)
Key Questions of Corporate Strategy
1. What businesses should the corporation
be in?
2. How should the corporate office manage
the array of business units?
Corporate Strategy is what makes the corporate whole
add up to more than the sum of its business unit parts

BCG Matrix – Product Portfolio
strategy
BCG MATRIX helps in determining the product portfolio
strategy of the organization. It leverages the
knowledge of the corporation to optimally utilize the
resources. Resources are channelized in the right
direction by appropriate product strategy.
The BCG matrix method is based on the product life
cycle theory that can be used to determine what
priorities should be given in the product portfolio of a
business unit. It involves rating products according
to their market share and market growth rate.

Bargaining Power of Suppliers
Suppliers are likely to be powerful if:
Suppliers exert power
in the industry by:
* Threatening to raise
prices or to reduce quality
Powerful suppliers
can squeeze industry
profitability if firms
are unable to recover
cost increases
Supplier industry is dominated by a
few firms
Suppliers’ products have few substitutes
Buyer is not an important customer to
supplier
Suppliers’ product is an important
input to buyers’ product
Suppliers’ products are differentiated
Suppliers’ products have high
switching costs
Supplier poses credible threat of

Buyer groups are likely to be powerful if:

are large relative to seller’s sales
Purchase accounts for a significant
fraction of supplier’s sales
Products are undifferentiated
Buyers face few switching costs
Buyers’ industry earns high profits
Buyer presents a credible threat of
backward integration
Product unimportant to quality

with the supplying
industry by:
* Bargaining down prices

Rivalry Among Existing Competitors
Intense rivalry often plays out in the following ways:
Jockeying for strategic position
Using price competition
Staging advertising battles
Increasing consumer warranties or service
Making new product introductions
Occurs when a firm is pressured or sees an opportunity
Price competition often leaves the entire industry worse off
Advertising battles may increase total industry demand, but
may be costly to smaller competitors
Rivalry Among Existing Competitors
Cutthroat competition is more likely to occur when:
Numerous or equally balanced competitors
Slow growth industry
High fixed costs
High storage costs
Lack of differentiation or switching costs
Capacity added in large increments
Diverse competitors
High strategic stakes
High exit barriers
Following Up
The challenge for each company's management team
is to craft and execute a competitive strategy that
results in a respected brand image, keeps their
company in contention for global market leadership,
and produces good financial performance as
measured by earnings per share, return on equity
investment, stock price appreciation, and credit
rating.
