General Usefulness
Management models in themselves are usually graphic representations of
variables that interact together in a situation. In creating the model, the
originator has perceived and usually researched the importance of the
various factors that are included in its structure in relation to different
business problems.
Following the work of Shipham (2010), the author subscribes
to the belief that visible problems do not always have obvious causes.
Furthermore, there are levels of complexity, which need to be unraveled
before one can identify the true or root causes of a problem.
In strategic planning and market research, it is essential to identify
the real causes for issues and phenomena that are observed in the market.
Otherwise a great deal of money could be wasted or at risk due to incor-
rect hypotheses or objectives for research and investigation.
The use of business models allows for a structured reflective approach
in locating and identifying the hitherto unidentified causal factors of
business problems.
In considering the facets of various models, the strategist has a tool
to bring underlying influences to the surface providing a better chance to
explain contributors to problem symptoms. This book assumes that the
vision (ideal position of the organization) and mission statements (what
is done to achieve the vision) of the organization are known. It is also
assumed that the analyst is aware of the need to align recommendations
to these important signposts.
In the following pages we will consider some of the most popular, and
some lesser known management models, which can be useful in uncover-
ing the variables that need to be examined and measured in explaining or
describing business situations.
In all cases, we ask two questions: What does the consumer need? and
What does the decision maker need to know?
Acknowledgments
Thanks for the inspiration.
This journey began just over a year ago following my interaction with
marketing and market research students. They were struggling with the
concept of applying management models to solve business problems.
I realized that unless one has had work experience, many of the factors
mentioned within these models do not make sense. Someone had to
explain how to use management models and to show how they provide
a framework for analysis and suggestion of solutions. Understanding of
the basics then flows naturally—what information is needed and how to
gather it.
Thanks to my dear husband Garth: He tolerated (no, accepted)
erratic bedtimes and other selfish writing habits. He realized that I was
totally absorbed with finding good information and putting it into a
simplified format.
Thanks for the experts: My daughter Bronwyn Burdis who brought
me up to speed on the realities of supply chain design and Audrey Buckley,
the artist who provided me with my very own Cheshire cat.
Thanks to the Internet: For the people from all around the globe who
share their research, knowledge, and insights. My world is richer for this
generosity.
Finally, thanks to the team at Business Expert Press who supported
this venture with good and prompt advice when I needed it.
CHAPTER 1
Industry Stage
cc Innovators (2.4%)
cc Early adopters (13.5%)
cc Early majority (34.0%)
cc Late majority (34.0%)
cc Laggards (16.0%)
cc Place or distribution
Is the product widely available, or found in limited areas
only? The latter is an indication of either the embryonic
stage, or of niche marketing by players in the market.
cc Pricing
Examine the average price per unit and estimate profit
margins.
Product developers try to recover their developmental
costs, and take advantage of the desire of innovative
consumers to adopt the latest technology or product.
Hence at launch, the cost of a new product will be
priced at a premium.

the life-cycle curve. For example, vehicle models have a limited life
span, but there is still a need for some form of transport to move
people from one point to another.
Embryonic industries tend to be ones where technology has
opened a new vista of knowledge with the potential for entirely new
applications. For example, marine and other renewable energies;
products emerging as a result of the human genome project; stem
cell research; 3D organic printing; products designed to deal with
space travel, all fall within the definition of embryonic industries.
• Other indicators of maturity
Klepper (1997) provides an interesting article on strategies, using
the automobile and airline industries to illustrate the relationships
of indicators of market stage. Researchers also examine the follow-
ing factors to help pinpoint the industry life stage:
Competitors’ Strength
cc Distribution
cc Caliber of sales force
Having considered the industry life stage together with the competitive
conditions in the market, the final step in selecting a strategy is to test
the returns available from investment in the advertising and promo-
tional activities for customers’ movement up the brand resonance ladder.
(See Nichols 2013 for the Analytics 2.0 approach to incorporating meas-
urement from all traditional and modern media [such as the Internet,
social media, and use of mobile technology].)
To measure the ROI, both the level and type of advertising and
promotion need to be tracked and measured against sales increases. For
this reason, it is important to keep records of all types of expenditure,
movement of consumer awareness and attitudes, and commensurate
purchase or sales outcomes.
In the retail environment, the author has shown that it is not only
absolute, but relative adspend share that influences the growth in m arket
share in the following month. This suggests that ad and promotional
spend for all competitors in the market needs to be tracked.
Nichols (2013) suggests that there are three elements that need to be
measured: attribution, optimization, and allocation. This refers to the role
of the medium in meeting objectives, finding the right level of spend, and
then actively allocating and managing the budget to maximize returns.

down
With smell of

passageways.
Six o’clock.
The burn-out
ends of smoky
days.
And now a
gusty shower
wraps
The grimy
scraps
Of withered
leaves about
your feet
And newspapers from vacant lots;
The showers beat
On broken blinds and chimney-pots,
And at the corner of the street
A lonely cab-horse steams and stamps.
And then the lighting of the lamps.

Half-past one.
The street lamp sputtered,
The street lamp muttered,
The street lamp said, “Regard that woman
Who hesitates toward you in the light of the door
Which opens on her like a grin.
You see the border of her dress
Is torn and stained with sand,
And you see the corner of her eye
Twists like a crooked pin.”
Half-past two,
The street lamp said,
“Remark the cat which flattens itself in the gutter,
Slips out its tongue
And devours a morsel of rancid butter.”
So the hand of a child, automatic,
Slipped out and pocketed a toy that was running along the
quay.
I could see nothing behind that child’s eye.
I have seen eyes in the street
Trying to peer through lighted shutters,
And a crab one afternoon in a pool,
An old crab with barnacles on his back,
Gripped the end of a stick which I held him.
Half-past three,
The lamp sputtered,
The lamp muttered in the dark.
The lamp hummed:
“Regard the moon,
La lune ne garde aucune rancune,
She winks a feeble eye,
She smiles into corners.
She smoothes the hair of the grass.
The moon has lost her memory.
A washed-out smallpox cracks her face,
Her hand twists a paper rose,
That smells of dust and old Cologne,
She is alone
With all the old nocturnal smells
That cross and cross across her brain.
The reminiscence comes
Of sunless dry geraniums
And dust in crevices,
Smells of chestnuts in the streets,
And female smells in shuttered rooms,
And cigarettes in corridors
And cocktail smells in bars.”
The brown
waves of fog
toss up to me
Twisted faces from the bottom of the street,
And tear from a passer-by with muddy skirts
An aimless smile that hovers in the air
And vanishes along the level of the roofs.
CONVERSATION GALANTE

sentimental
friend the
moon!
Or possibly
(fantastic, I
confess)
It may be
Prester John’s

Or an old
battered lantern
hung aloft
To light poor
travellers to
their distress.”
She then:
“How you
digress!”
Miss Nancy
Ellicott smoked
And danced all the modern dances;
And her aunts were not quite sure how they felt about it,
But they knew that it was modern.
When evening
quickens faintly
in the street,
Wakening the
appetites of life
in some
And to others bringing the Boston Evening Transcript,
I mount the stairs and ring the bell, turning
Wearily, as one would turn to nod good-bye to
Rochefoucauld,
If the street were time and he at the end of the street,
And I say, “Cousin Harriet, here is the Boston Evening
Transcript.”

Fling them to

With a fugitive resentment in your eyes:
But weave, weave the sunlight in your hair.
