7 Examples of Product Depth

 ,
Product depth is the number of versions of a product that a firm offers. This introduces variety to satisfy diverse customer needs and reach more target markets. In some cases, product depth also allows a large firm to gain market share by competing with itself to squeeze out real competition. The following are illustrative examples of product depth.

Brands

A firm may offer multiple brands in the same product category to give the illusion of choice and competition. Such brands may have different target markets. For example, a fast moving consumer goods company that offers a brand of shampoo marketed to women and a brand of shampoo marketed to men.

Models

Different models of the same product such as a mobile phone manufacturer that offers 4 models with different features, functions and prices.

Styles

Styles such as a model of men's belt that is available in 8 colors.

Formulations

Products versions that have different ingredients such as an organic and non-organic peanut butter product.

Packaging

Packaging variations such as a green tea that is sold loose leaf in a can and as tea bags in a box.

Options

Optional features such as a phone that is sold with different sizes of memory.

Packages

Options that are organized into packages such as the trim levels of an automobile model.
