That is to say, HTC brand awareness was not matching its technological and innovative approach. In fact, its brand awareness was very low compare to its competitors in the smart phone industry. Therefore, it is clear that a company of the magnitude of HTC need to do more in terms of brand awareness in order to sustain and increase its market share in such a highly competitive market.

All of this matters because moonlighting can have awful consequences. It can cost you your job if an unapproving boss finds out. Plus, investors are reluctant to get involved in a startup if they sense any IP concerns. Perhaps worst of all, if you create things for your startup on your employer’s time or equipment, you risk losing your rights to that IP. Something as small as using a work computer to test an algorithm for your startup could wind you up in a situation like this: That’s right, if you create IP while working at your day job, your old boss might own that IP. What if you use part of your employer’s IP to help create your own stuff? Same result: your boss might own it, and he could have other claims against you for improperly using “his”...

...2015 Dr. Godfrey Ekata Q1. How does Porter’s competitive forces model help companies develop competitive strategies using information systems? Answer: Porters five models are used to determine the strategic position of the firm based on its competition with its traditional competitors. The five forces model looks at five particular factors that help figure out if or not a business can be productive, taking into account different organizations in the business. As indicated by Porter the origin of profitability is identical irrespective in case of industry. In that light, industry structure is what eventually drives competition and profitability —not whether an industry produces a product or service, is emerging or mature, high-tech or low-tech, regulated or unregulated. "If the forces are intense, as they are in such industries as airlines, textiles, and hotels, almost no company earns attractive returns on investment," Porter wrote. "If the forces are benign, as they are in industries such as software, soft drinks, and toiletries, many companies are profitable." (Porter, 2001) Understanding the five forces The five forces that would shape industry competition are: Competitive Rivalry The competitive rivalry within the industry also affects the competitiveness of the industry. Competition from opposition is high when there are just a few industries equally selling a product or service, and customers can easily shift to a competitors offering for lesser cost at the...

...self-driving cars has become very popular in the recent years. About 10 years ago, people were suspect about the safety and overall feasibility of the self-driving machines, let alone self-driving taxis. Today, as more tech companies, like Google, are coming up with these cars and testing their performance, people become more willing to give up their seat at the wheel (Emarketer). Whenever new technology comes out in the market, marketers manipulate on how a specific customer segment will react to the product. Take for example, personal computers or internet and how nobody could have predicted that these products would become a commodity. Yet, today, people can’t picture living without them. Knowing what are the benefits and costs of the product make it easier to create a marketing plan for the product. Thus, this report will cover the following subtopics: 1. Benefits and costs of self-driving taxis 2. Potential pricing strategies and costs to the company 3. Characteristics of the direct competitor - Google 4. Timing of the product 5. Ethical Concerns 6. Our final recommendations Benefits and costs of self-driving taxis The research conducted by University of Texas found that one self-driving car can replace approximately 10 privately owned vehicles.
