Opportunities for growth are everywhere, but few are more tempting than moving to nearby markets: pursuing new customers, entering new geographies, or developing new products or channels. And with good reason—many companies have created a market adjacency strategy or strategies to deliver sustained growth. Of the fastest-growing companies from a group of 2,250 studied by Bain, 72% pursued market adjacencies; 28% did not.

But before you develop your next market adjacency strategy, consider that adjacency moves are also very risky. In fact, according to Bain, only one in four met long-term expectations. The others either failed to achieve their goals or were deemed outright failures by senior management.

The good news is, there are things you can do to beat those odds.
