⢠Company division
⢠Product line within a division
⢠Single product or brand
18. ⢠Stars â Stars are high growth businesses or products competing in markets where they are
relatively strong compared with the competition. They are typically at the peak of their
product life cycle. Stars generate large amounts of cash because of their strong relative
market share, but also consume large amounts of cash because of their high growth rate.
Often they need heavy investment to sustain their growth. Eventually their growth will slow
and will become cash cows.
⢠Cash Cows â Cash cows are low-growth businesses or products with a relatively high market
share. These are mature, successful businesses with relatively little need for investment. They
typically bring in far more money than is needed to maintain their market share. In this
decline stage of their life cycle, these products are âmilkedâ for cash that will be invested in
new question marks.
⢠Question marks â Question marks are businesses or products with low market share but
which operate in higher growth markets. Question marks are growing rapidly and thus
consume large amounts of cash, but because they have low market shares they do not
generate much cash. A question mark (also known as a âproblem childâ) has the potential to
gain market share and become a star, and eventually a cash cow when the market growth
slows. If the question mark does not succeed in becoming the market leader, then after years
of cash consumption it will degenerate into a dog when the market growth declines.
Management have to think hard about âquestion marksâ â which ones should they invest in?
Which ones should they allow to fail or shrink?
⢠Dogs â Dogs have low market share and a low growth rate and thus neither generate nor
consume a large amount of cash. However, dogs are cash traps because of the money tied up
in a business that has little potential. Such businesses are candidates for divestiture.
