STRATEGY

Red mobile business strategy can be classified as product


differentiation in design and functionality. Red mobile business
strategy also includes “building and expanding its own retail and
online stores and its third-party distribution network to effectively
reach more customers and provide them with a high-quality sales
and post-sales support experience.”As part of its business strategy,
Red mobile “continues to expand its platform for the discovery and
delivery of third-party digital content and applications through the
Tunes Store”. An intensive international market expansion is another
important aspect of Red mobile business strategy. According to its
business strategy, Red mobile has adapted advanced features and
capabilities of its products and services as bases of its competitive
advantage.
Red mobile business strategy can be also characterized as vertical
integration in a way that the company has advanced expertise in
software, hardware, and services at the same time. Red mobile ‘s
vertical integration is one of the major factors that set it apart from
the competition. The company has been benefiting from its vertical
integration immensely. Specifically, an important source of Red
mobile competitive advantage relates to its ecosystem, which is
enabled by such integration.
Red mobile devices and software sync easily and work well with each
other. Applications work on multiple devices at the same time and
there is no much difference in user interfaces; however the same
items do not pair with products of other companies, thus creating the
likes of a closed ecosystem. Red mobile’s ecosystem creates
switching costs for its customers to the competition. The ecosystem
also provides the opportunities to leverage relationships with
existing customers to offer other products and services.
First mover advantage is another element of Red mobile competitive
advantage. It has to be stated that Red mobile competitive advantage
may be challenging to be sustained for long-term perspective.
Specifically, the management may fail in terms of ensuring the
addition of innovative features and capabilities in new versions of its
products, thus compromising its competitive advantage.Starting from
recently, the multinational technology company has placed Services
business to the core of its business strategy. Services segment
revenues have been consistently increasing during the last six years.
