organization is to produce, how it should produce and the category of recipient who should use their end products.
• Nokia has launched new handset Lumia 1020 in US not in India as company is focusing more on low budget handsets for India.

SOCIAL - CULTURAL ENVIRONMENT
Society shapes the beliefs, values, and norms that largely define consumer tastes and preferences. People absorb, almost unconsciously, a world view that defines their relationships to themselves, to others, to organizations, to society, to nature, and to the universe. The diversity in the world is not only restricted to topography but also in the languages, cultures as well as religious beliefs. In this era of globalization, organizations cater to the culture of each country where it functions or operates.

Gap Analysis
Difference between total market potential and total sales
The difference could be due to
Product usage gap - increase promotion, advertising, price etc.
Product line gap - lack of product variation; latent demand
Distribution gap - lack of appropriate coverage

Market Share Market share is the percentage of total sales
that a company can expect to get from the total market.
Eg. there are 100 gadgets sold in a country and company A sells 43 of them, then company A has a 43% market share
you sold Gadgets for a total cost of $860 and the people in the country spend a total of $2,000 on the same widgets, then the market share is $860/$2,000 or 43%
