Product Life Cycle (PLC): Introduced by Theodore Levitt (1965), it is the succession of marketing stages that a product goes through over time, from its development to withdrawal from the market. It helps in defining strategic actions at each stage as market conditions change.
Five stages of PLC: These are Development, Introduction, Growth, Maturity, and Decline. Each stage represents a different phase in the product's market presence, sales, and profitability.
Purpose of PLC in marketing strategy: The PLC provides a framework to adapt marketing mix decisions—such as pricing, promotion, and distribution—according to the product’s current stage, optimizing resource allocation and strategic focus.
