5 Examples of Organic Growth

 , updated on
Organic growth is an increase in revenue that is driven by a firm's business capabilities in areas such as marketing, innovation and operations. The term is meant to exclude growth obtained by buying or merging with other companies. In some cases, a firm looks like it is growing because it is acquiring smaller firms but its core business is actually in decline. The following are examples of organic growth.

Branding & Promotion

Increasing market share by promoting products and improving brand awareness.

Innovation & Product Development

Developing products to increase market share or enter new markets.

Sales & Distribution

Improving sales by expanding or improving sales operations and distribution partnerships. For example, a firm might find distribution partners to sell products in a new territory.

Customer Relationships

Improving customer experience to increase customer lifetime value.

Operations

Bottom-line growth can be improved by reducing costs through operational efficiency. Market share can be improved by providing a service that is higher value than the competition. For example, a delivery service that is more reliable than the competition may gain market share.
