Industry Analysis
Back to Syllabus

This 5-7 page paper would investigate an online industry.  Is the industry likely to eventually be profitable?  Why or why not? Which companies within the industry are more likely to be profitable and why?  A SWOT (strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats) is appropriate for this paper.  I suggest the following industries, although if you have an idea for a different industry, submit it to me for approval before proceeding.


Industries may include:

Groceries
Drugstores
Bookstores
Clothing/Apparel

CDs
The Music Industry
The Entertainment Industry
Travel

Gifts
Auctioneering
Computers

Software
