What are the Product Life Cycle (PLC) Stages used for? It helps to predict the profit levels and tailoring marketing programs according to the demand‚ your product development stage‚ current profits and level of investments and your changing customers’ needs. The Product Life Cycle (PLC) is one of the Products Portfolio Analysis and Planning Tools. What are the Product Life Cycle Stages? There are four different stages of any product from its development stage (prototype) till the product withdrawn

General Page Life-cycle Stages Stage Page request Description The page request occurs before the page life cycle begins. When the page is requested by a user‚ ASP.NET determines whether the page needs to be parsed and compiled or whether a cached version of the page can be sent in response without running the page. In the start step‚ page properties such as Request and Response are set. At this stage‚ the page also determines whether the request is a postback or a new request and sets the IsPostBack

Product Lifecycle Management Stage 4: Decline The decline stage of the product life cycle is the one where the product ultimately ’dies’ due to the low or negative growth rate in sales (see Figure 1). Profitability will fall‚ eventually to the point where it is no longer profitable to produce‚ and production will stop. As a number of companies start to dominate the market‚ it becomes increasingly difficult for the company in question to maintain its level of sales. Consumer tastes also change

The product life cycle concept is the explanation of the product from its birth to death as a product exists in different stages and in different competitive environments. William j.stanton Like humans every product have certain length of life during which it passes through various stages ‚ which can conceptually be represented as product ageing process. Similar to human life a product`s life can also divided into four parts. Introductory stage Growth stage Maturity stage Decline stage

The Life Cycles of Stars In the universe‚ there are hundreds of billions of stars. They are formed when gas and dust from space "clump" together. As the mass grows larger‚ gravity takes over and a core begins to form. The core becomes extremely dense and this compaction causes temperatures within it to rise to the point where nuclear fusion (the burning of hydrogen in a chain reaction) can begin. The heat generated by fusion can reach 24 million degrees F (Fahrenheit). "That amount of heat keeps

the core as a gaseous shell. The gas that surrounds the core is called a "Planetary Nebula". The core that is left then becomes a "white dwarf". After the white dwarf cools down enough it stops shining and dies‚ forming a "black dwarf". Another life cycle of a star involves a star with a mass of 10 solar masses or more. These stars evolve similarly to stars of about 1 solar mass until they reach "main sequence". The star shines bright until all of its hydrogen has fused to form helium. This takes

through a sequence of stages from introduction to growth‚ maturity‚ and decline. This sequence is known as the product life cycle and is associated with changes in the marketing situation‚ thus impacting the marketing strategy and the marketing mix. The product revenue and profits can be plotted as a function of the life-cycle stages as shown in the graph below: Product Life Cycle Diagram Introduction Stage In the introduction stage‚ the firm seeks to build product awareness

Eventually though a passing star or shock wave from a supernova will disturb the gas and dust. The dust and gas may then start to clump together‚ gravity will then clump more and more gas together‚ this is when the star starts the next part of its life cycle. Protostar: A protostar is when the gas has clumped together and it getting hot but has not reached what is known as critical mass. At this point the gas will be hot enough to glow. but since there is still a large amount of dust su
