Abstract

Karl Wadensten, president of Vibco Vibrators, was deciding whether to grow his small company through a marketing push for one of two technologies that he believed could launch his company to the next level of sales, or if he should continue to grow his company through small incremental growth and customize his products to each customers unique needs. Should he dedicate the majority of his small firm's marketing budget to just these two products that he hoped could launch Vibco to the next level of sales?
