Competitive\nPressures of High Barriers to Entry in Apple Company<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Apple Company is globally known for its\nhigh-end production of electronic devices such as mobile phones, computers,\nlaptops, tablets and software. The company is majorly known for its technological\nadvancement and unique to response software market needs. Other strengths include\nits creativity and innovative capacity, established supplier code of conduct,\nand also users find it easy to use its product. Apple company has also managed\nto form alliances with companies such as Sony, Philips and Motorola.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
However,\nApple company also experiences stiff competition from rival companies from the\nlikes of Samsung, Lenovo, Huawei and Xiaomi in China. The company has received\npressures from substitute products in the industry. For instance, the iPod was\nrivalled by Samsung, mp3 player and Sony mp3 player while IPad substituted by\nSamsung tab. Lastly, the iPhone faced similar technical similarities with\nSamsung Galaxy, Samsung Note, HTC, Nokia and Sony Erickson (Usman, Mohammd\n& Shabirr, 2015). The invasion of \u2018substituted products\u2019 equally presented high-moderate\ncompetitiveness within the industry against Apple Company.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
On\nmatters technological rivalry from other sellers, Apple company has managed to\nenjoy a well-diversified portfolio of technology-based products. Otherwise, the\nability of the company to sell its hardware and software has made it hard for\nthe user to synchronize and customize the software. At the global stage, the\nimpact of a highly competitive market environment weakens Apple company\ndominance. Some of the depreciated growth include from 50% to 9% in America,\n31% to 4% in Europe and 94% to 27% in Japan. Then again, the smartphone market\nhas observed impulsive growth from other companies leading to 14% decline in\nApple growth and Apple iPad growth demonstrated 13% while their competitors recorded\n79% growth rate (Eve, 2016). Luckily, amid all competitive pressures from rival\ncompanies, Apple company still standouts to sell out its single line product.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
On\nmatter consumer preference, buyers will always go for the cheaper goods and\nservices. Apple company is traditionally known to supply luxurious products. These\nscenarios have provided the likes of Samsung to produce moderately cheaper\nmobile devices to meet other consumer demand. The art of simplifying technological\nadvancement by the rivals of Apple company has positioned it on a leveraged\nposition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
As\nfar as market entry is concerned, Apple Company focuses on one hand to produce\nproducts and services that provide a wide range of usage. The functions of\nsmartphone devices from Apple Company are oriented to fit larger markets\nwithout segmenting its strategic marketing approaches (Eve, 2016). Functions\nsuch as computing, communications, entertainment preferences and information\nmanagement have been made available by Apple company devices. Whereas, a\ncompany such as Samsung implements a segmented marketing approach implying that\nit looks onto aspects of geographical location, demographic make-up and psychographic\ncharacteristics. Samsung and other products present their product as a\nuniversal use by all society members bringing aspects of mainstreaming and\ninclusivity in cost and usage of the product.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The\nlong-term dominance of Apple company, especially on mobile device production,\nis reducing in margin amid increase of new and customer friendly products in\nthe market. Its frequent legal battle in the court in regards to copyrights\ninfringements puts Apple company at the compromised situation. The mushroomed\ntechnological advancement in the mobile device industry has flooded easily\naffordable devices to unexplored market margins of Apple Company. However,\nApple Company banks on its uniqueness in innovation and customer loyalty to\npenetrate the ever competitive market share. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
