This approach could involve:

• Improving selling skills
• Positioning of the service or product  more effectively in the marketplace
• Identifying genuine strengths that the company has that should be brought to light
• Honing in on the company’s competitive edges
• Revising the advertising program
• Upgrading the website
• Rethinking the target markets
• Strengthening customer service
• Devoting far more attention to existing customers
• Capitalizing on new opportunities in the marketplace
• Evaluating customer satisfaction
• Identifying lost opportunities and the reason for their occurrence
• Focusing on the activities and the approach of the competition
