    The key issue to identify is why customers are choosing other outlets. Is itbecause of location, price or product quality? Analysing a problem of this kind

    needs a systematic approach.

    Talking to customers about what they like, visiting other outlets to see the

    competition and examining inhouse data on costs, pricing and service could

    provide valuable information. !ased on this research, alternative courses of

    action might include cutting costs in order to reduce prices or promoting the cafe

    in different ways.

    8. #trategy as a *;+C4 #trategy can be a ploy , too, which isreally ust a specific -manoeuvre- intended to outwit anopponent or competitor. The kid may use the fence as a ployto draw a bully into his yard, where his (oberman *incher

    awaits intruders. ;ikewise, a firm may threaten to establish anew practice area in order to discourage a competitor fromtrying to do the same. ere the real strategy 7as plan, that is,the real intention8 is the threat, not the new practice areaitself, and as such is a ploy. Threatened litigation often falls

    into this category.

    1. #trategy is a *ATT":54 #trategy 7whether as generalplans or specific ploys8 is pointless if it cannot be reali we also need a definition that encompasses theresulting behaviour. Thus, strategy is also a pattern specifically, a pattern in a stream of actions. !y thisdefinition, strategy is consistent in behaviour, whether or notintended. The outcome of strategy does not derive from thedesign, or plan, but from the action that is taken as a result .
