  • To what extent do brand, company reputation, pricing, key features, clinical data impact product choice?
  • How are the competitors positioned? What is the optimal positioning to accelerate sales growth?
  • How will the next generation product be viewed and what it the potential market share and sales growth impact?
  • What are the key obstacles preventing further growth and how can those obstacles be overcome?
  • What are the strategic inorganic growth implications of the findings?
