...In a world where being first is usually equated with being the best, celebrated management guru and author Jim Collins’ article ‘BEST BEATS FIRST’ debunks the myth of First Mover Advantage. He outlines with examples, how it is that the apparent ‘Johnny come lately’ endures in a market that swallows its very first players. The article, written in August 2000, cites many examples to show that for FMA to be applicable, there are strict conditions, which rarely hold true in reality and in the author’s words “…being first seldom proves to be a sustainable advantage and usually proves to be a liability” The author starts by pointing out how the inertia of late movers or followers is not a sustainable advantage to those who are first to build market share. This is especially true is the followers are established industry giants who move into a new market much later with their “vast pre-existing customer sets”. This often spells end-game for the pioneers who, in their complacence, have fallen prey to a more detrimental kind of inertia- Incumbent Inertia. Mr. Collins cites the example of VisiCalc, now virtually forgotten as the first major PC spreadsheet, as the late entrant Excel still reigns supreme. The author moves on to the now widely referenced example of how the PalmPilot learnt from the technical and design loopholes of the much-publicized Apple’s Newton MessagePad. The PalmPilot entered the market with a product with the script Graffiti which had none of Newton’s glitches, thus...

...Communicable Disease Outbreak Analysis Evelyn Sutton Western Governor's University Communicable Disease Outbreak Analysis There are many diseases that have become a thing of the past due to vaccines that are routinely given during infancy and early childhood in the United States. These diseases still exist but we just see it very rarely now. When a person is diagnosed with one of these communicable diseases in the United States, it is reported to the Department of Health and Environmental Control and the Centers of Disease Control so it can be investigated further.

Any case of the measles that is diagnosed in the United States is said to have come over through international travel in some way.

Get rid of the clutter All PPC accounts can become a little keyword heavy at times, leaving it ticking along can be the easy option at times, especially if you know it’s driving some activity to your website. However don't be satisfied with some. Quantify exactly what you’re getting from your PPC activity and then look at which keywords are driving the real success. It's likely that only 20% of the keywords in your account are really working for you. Don't be afraid to pause the keywords that are inefficient and put that budget to those that are working for you. It could really increase that all important ROI. 2. Showcase yourself Ad extensions have been an Adwords tool for some time now, however I'm always surprised to see how many companies still haven't utilised this feature.

...Viagra, developed by Pfizer, was released four years prior and enjoyed great success over the previous three years. Viagra, whose main ingredient is Sildenafil, was generating over $1 billion in sales for Pfizer year over year for the previous three years (Ofek, 2010). While Viagra was successful in its initial years in the initial market, it was not without its problems. Patient satisfaction with Viagra was below 50% in all markets with the exception of Germany and Italy. Viagra was only effective for hours post dosage, and was affected by the consumption of a high fat meal before taking the medication. It seemed that a fatty meal lessened the body’s ability to absorb the drug. Conversely, Cialis was effective up to 36 hours after a dose was administered. Also, Cialis was not affected by the fat content of the patient’s meal prior to taking the drug. This gave ICOS Lilly an advantage with Cialis as they prepared to enter the marketplace....

...see a few more quarters of disappointing earnings results — or weakening iPhone sales growth. Last week, Apple delivered a rare earnings disappointment. The report was notable for weak iPhone sales growth, which Apple tried to explain by citing “rumors and speculation” about a new iPhone that could be leading consumers to hold out for the new model. Apple reported sales of $35 billion, below Wall Street expectations of $37 billion, and said it sold 26 million iPhones, down from 35.1 million in the previous quarter but 28% higher than last year. That result was underwhelming for a company that normally blows away Wall Street expectations. “It’s disappointing on the iPhone number,” Piper Jaffray analyst Gene Munster observed mildly. Apple has a winning product with the iPad tablet, but that device faces increased competition, most notably from newly introduced Google and Microsoft devices. Also: don’t forget that iPhone sales account for nearly half of Apple’s overall revenue, though sales of the newer — and more...
