Five Forces Model
In addition to the macro-environmental forces which affect marketing plans, marketers must carefully consider the industry and competitive environment. The firms that can affect the marketer more directly are the rival firms, supplier firms, customers, firms that offer substitutes, and new entrants into the industry.
