-*[[Market]] Penetration. Sell more of the same products or services in current markets. These strategies normally try to change incidental clients to regular clients, and regular client into heavy clients. Typical systems are volume discounts, bonus cards and [[Customer]] Relationship [[Management]]. Strategy is often to achieve economies of scale through more efficient [[manufacturing]], more efficient [[distribution]], more purchasing [[power]], overhead sharing.
 *Market Development. Sell more of the same products or services in new markets. These strategies often try to lure clients away from competitors or introduce existing products in foreign markets or introduce new [[brand]] names in a market. New markets can be geographic or functional, such as when we sell the same product for another purpose. Small modifications may be necessary. Beware of cultural differences.
 *[[Product Development]]. Sell new products or services in current markets. These strategies often try to sell other products to (regular) clients. These can be accessories, add-ons, or completely new products. Cross-selling. Often, existing communication channels are used.
-*Diversification. Sell new products or services in new markets. These strategies are the most risky type of strategies. Often there is a credibility focus in the communication to explain why the company enters new markets with new products. On the other hand diversification strategies also can decrease [[risk]], because a large corporation can spread certain risks if it operates on more than one market. Diversification can be done in four ways:
 **Horizontal diversification. This occurs when the company acquires or develops new products that could appeal to its current customer groups even though those new products may be technologically unrelated to the existing product lines.
 **Vertical diversification. The company moves into the business of its suppliers or into the business of its customers.
 **Concentric diversification. This results in new product lines or services that have technological and/or [[marketing]] synergies with existing product lines, even though the products may appeal to a new customer group.
-**Conglomerate diversification. This occurs when there is neither technological nor marketing synergy and this requires reaching new customer groups. Sometimes used by large companies seeking ways to balance a cyclical [[portfolio]] with a non-cyclical one.
