Market Entry Recommendations

Frequently asked questions
How are market entry recommendations different from growth opportunity analysis?
Growth opportunity analysis ranks the opportunities worth pursuing. Entry recommendations take a chosen market and decide the mode, timing, positioning and phased route into it.
How are they different from market assessment?
Market assessment judges whether the market is attractive. Entry recommendations answer the follow-on question - if attractive, how do we enter.
What entry modes are considered?
Greenfield development, partnership and alliance structures - assessed for fit, control, cost and speed.
Does it include timing advice?
Yes - the market window, competitor moves and organisational readiness all feed a recommended timing and sequence.
What does the customer receive?
