Cash Cows: • High Market Share / Low Market Growth • Here, you're well-established, so it's easy to get attention and exploit new opportunities. However it's only worth expending a certain amount of effort, because the market isn't growing and your opportunities are limited.

Stars: • High Market Share / High Market Growth • Here you're well-established, and growth is exciting! These are fantastic opportunities, and you should work hard to realize them.

Question Marks (Problem Child): • Low Market Share / High Market Growth • These are the opportunities no one knows what to do with. They aren't generating much revenue right now because you don't have a large market share. But, they are in high growth markets so the potential to make money is there. Question Marks might become Stars and eventual Cash Cows,

Dogs: Low Market Share / Low Market Growth • In these areas, your market presence is weak, so it's going to take a lot of hard work to get noticed. Also, you won't enjoy the scale economies of the larger players, so it's going to be difficult to make a profit.

Decisions After Analyses BCG • Build Market Share: Make further investments (for example, to maintain Star status, or turn a Question Mark into a Star) • Hold: Maintain the status quo (do nothing) • Reduce the investment (enjoy positive cash flow and maximize profits from a Star or Cash Cow) • Get rid of the Dogs, and use the capital to invest in Stars and some Question Marks.
