Typically there are four types of market dominance strategies: o Leader o Challenger o Follower o Nicher * Porter generic strategies - Michael Porter assessed strategy on the dimensions of strategic scope and strategic strength. Strategic scope refers to the breadth of market penetration while strategic strength refers to the firm’s sustainable competitive advantage.
