Four Areas Whiteboard Example - BCG Matrix

Slide Content:

BCG Matrix: A BCG matrix is a framework that helps companies analyze their product portfolio and make strategic decisions about where to allocate resources. The matrix is divided into four quadrants: stars, question marks, cash cows, and dogs.

• Stars: Stars are high-growth, high-market-share products. They require a lot of investment to maintain their growth, but they also generate a lot of cash.
• Question marks: Question marks are high-growth, low-market-share products. They have the potential to become stars, but they also require a lot of investment. Companies need to decide whether to invest in question marks or divest them.
• Cash cows: Cash cows are low-growth, high-market-share products. They generate a lot of cash, but they don't require a lot of investment. Companies should use the cash from cash cows to invest in stars and question marks.
• Dogs: Dogs are low-growth, low-market-share products. They don't generate a lot of cash, and they require a lot of investment. Companies should consider divesting dogs.
