During development, you spend money
R&D Spend $
time
Total development spend = the # of months until your launch date * dev costs per month

Once you launch your product, revenue starts to ramp up and you start making $$
Market Intro $
time
The slope of this curve is dictated by the time it takes to ramp up to max revenue (supply chain, marketing, sales)

At some point, your product matures to
max revenue
Market Maturity $
time
At maturity, your market share and revenue are maxed out

Revenue ramps down as the
product lifecycle nears
its end
Market Exit $
time
The revenue lifecycle starts at launch date and ends at market exit

What Happens When You Are Late-To-Market?
You can’t fix all of the bugs in time. You can’t get all of the features built in time.
You need to add a feature. You have a supplier problem.

The time and money spent on
development increases
You Are Late $
time
You delay the point when you start making money and extend the spend on dev
![Page 12: How to Calculate the Cost of Being Late to Market](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081412/540da8a78d7f72767e8b4af5/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Your max revenue per
month is 2% to 6% less for
each month you are late!!
Uh-oh $
time
You get a max revenue penalty for being late. You lost market share, customers lost interest, customers
went to your competitors, etc.
![Page 13: How to Calculate the Cost of Being Late to Market](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081412/540da8a78d7f72767e8b4af5/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
This penalty % is industry and
timing dependent
Uh-oh $
time
An optimistic approximation is a 2% penalty per month late. If you miss a key date (like Nintendo missing Xmas), the penalty can be much higher.

The market exit date does not change
much or at all
Compacted Lifecycle $
time
Your competition and market conditions force the end of life date for your product to remain virtually unchanged (you have to refresh your product line).

time
Total expense increases
