The product life cycle describes introduction, growth, maturity and decline in a product's market development. It helps frame changes in demand, competition and commercial priorities.[1] It does not describe physical wear, disposal or the end of an individual item's useful life.
For a mature product, priorities may shift from building awareness to differentiation and protecting profitability. Use the model as a framework rather than a timetable: products do not all pass through every stage in the same way. One weak month does not establish structural market decline.
