2. SWOT ANALYSIS

  • SWOT analysis is a regular review of a business as part of its overall marketing strategy.
  • It considers both internal and external factors.
  • SWOT stands for:
  • Strengths – the strong points of the business.
  • Weaknesses – areas where the business is weak.
  • Opportunities – opportunities the business may exploit in the future.
  • Threats – internal or external problems that could threaten the business.
  • Regular SWOT analysis helps keep products and services aligned with changing market conditions.
  • It also gives the business time to take corrective action and avoid potential problems.
