A product or service that an organization’s customers place a greater value on than similar offerings from a competitor. Same like best value product.







The Three Generics Strategies 

1. Cost Leadership

Becoming a low-cost producer in the industry allows the company to lower prices to customers.
Competitors with higher costs cannot afford to compete with the low-cost leader on price.

2. Differentiation
Create competitive advantage by distinguishing their products on one or more features important to their customers. 
Unique features or benefits may justify price differences and/or stimulate demand.
Ex: i-care by Proton

3. Focused Strategy

Target to a niche market.Concentrates on either cost leadership or differentiation
