Answer:

A firm must be effectively organized to capture value. A firm has to ensure it has a properly ongoing work system where everything balances. Proper marketing and advert, viability in product quality, organized administrative and technical structuring, analysis on probable customer base etc., these and many more factors have to be critically looked into and worked on to gain competitive advantage. What is the competition doing right that we are missing? who are our competition? Why are they the peoples favorite? How can we become the peoples favorite? Questions of these sort if worked on and implemented, will facilitate effective organizational growth.
