Evaluate management perceptions about the market in order to determine the extent they are valid and achievable.
Determine the company’s unique strength and incorporate the strength into the marketing efforts.
Find out new opportunities available in the market and take advantage of them. Opportunities could be in terms of the acquisition, putting new product/service into the market, or collaboration with other companies in related business.
