Abstract

Many firms’ products fail not because they are poorly designed. They fail because firms do not successfully manage their products over time. This chapter introduces the product life cycle theory, which divides the life of the product into four major stages (Introduction, Growth, Maturity, and Decline) and discusses its design implications. Subsequently, Ansoff’s Growth Matrix is used to illustrate how firms can extend the life of growing and mature products. The chapter leverages Beats Electronics’ design strategy to illustrate the intricacies of the product life cycle.
