II. PRODUCT LIFECYCLE STAGES
Both the Company and the Marketer recognize and understand the intricate dynamics involved in the four pivotal stages of a product's lifecycle. Each stage presents unique challenges and opportunities:

B. Growth: The stage where the product gains acceptance and its sales and profitability start to significantly increase. Rapid increase in sales, achieving economies of scale, and expanding market share.
C. Maturity: At this stage, the product reaches its peak in terms of sales and profits. Slowing sales growth, increased competition, and saturated markets.
D. Decline: This phase sees a reduction in sales as the product starts becoming obsolete or is overtaken by newer alternatives. Decreasing sales and profits, phased-out marketing support, and potential product discontinuation.
