1. Sales growth slows and peaks — the product reaches widespread adoption so overall unit growth flattens and mainly comes from repeat purchases or replacement sales.
2. Market saturation and intense competition — most potential buyers already own the product, so firms fight for market share through promotions, pricing, and channel tactics.
3. Profit margins compress — increased marketing, discounting and price pressure, plus higher costs to defend share, tend to stabilize or reduce profits.
4. Shift to differentiation and cost/efficiency strategies — companies focus on product modifications, new features or variants, targeted promotions, process improvements and cost control to extend the lifecycle and maintain share.
