    Competitive Landscape Brief

    Business growth, personal income, and technological innovation drive demand. The profitability of individual companies depends on effective merchandising, competitive pricing, and reliable service. Large companies have advantages in purchasing, distribution, and marketing. Small companies can compete effectively by serving a local market, offering unique products, or providing superior customer service. The industry is labor-intensive: average annual revenue per worker is about $130,000. The primary competitors for computer stores are consumer electronics stores and Internet and catalog retailers. Computer stores also compete with office supply stores, direct sales outlets of computer, peripheral, and software manufacturers, value-added resellers, mass merchandisers, and warehouse clubs.
