    “Most organisations offer more than one product or service…..The advantage here is that the various products – the product portfolio – can be managed so that they are not all in the same phase in their life cycles” (Hollensen, 2015 p257). Having a balanced portfolio allows for the most efficient use of both cash and human resources (Hollensen, 2015 p257). * Hollensen, S. (2015) Marketing Management: A relationship approach. 3rd ed.
