Hi,

It depends on when the revenue growth question is being asked:

• In the beginning of the case as the main objective
• In the middle of the case as a question on creativity

In the beginning of the case I would use the following broad structure:

Analyze the market:

• Size and growth rates
• Segments (geographical, customer, product)
• Distributors / Suppliers
• Regulation
• Key market trends

Analyze the competitors:

• Market shares, growth rates, profits
• Product / customer / geographical mix
• Products (Value proposition)
• Unit economics (Value proposition vs. price vs. costs)
• Key capabilities (Distribution, supply, assets, knowledge, etc)

Analyze our company:

• Market share, growth rates, profit
• Product / customer / geographical mix
• Products (Value proposition)
• Unit economics (Value proposition vs. price vs. costs)
• Key capabilities (Distribution, supply, assets, knowledge, etc)

How to increase revenues:

• How to increase the scope: Product / customer scope, geographical scope
• How to improve value proposition (How to fix your weaknesses and improve your strengths; Potential increase in price and volumes)
• How to answer the competitors (Unique or hard to build property and contracts; Customers / suppliers / complements with lock-in; Reputation and relationships; Organizational capabilities; Product features and know-how)
• Other benefits of scale (Spreading Fixed costs, Change in technology, Bragaining power)

However, if it is the questions on creativity in the middle of the case as the question on creativity I would use the following framework:

Organic growth

• Vertical integration
• Horizontal integration

Non-organic growth

• Existing product (Value proposition, price, volume, Revenue models (one-time payment, subscription), Channels (Online, offline), etc)
• New markets / New segments (Geographical markets. Types of customers: B2B, B2C, B2G, etc. E.g. Female magazine may sell magazines to customers and advertising services to business)
• New products (Product mix - you may have multiple products and variation of products. Think of breadth (e.g. collection size in fashion) and depth (e.g. sizes and colors of dress) of your product line. Croselling opportunities - e.g. selling accessories)

Best!
