- Capacity: The main ability to understand how the impact of the actions taken against the imminent aggression on customer segments in the market

- Targeted results: see a company that did not reduce their prices, the withdrawal of the company declared the war is the best results can be achieved

- The implications of the market value: adopt established companies in this market approach automatically because it is unlikely to jeopardize its reputation to advantage in prices does not last long

Approach II: Attack directed

This approach is used in addressing the aggression of other companies and seek to reduce the cost and damage choose the battlefield.

- Messages and tools: This approach does not address the broad sector of the public, but his letters targeting realizable value and focus. In fact, telecommunications companies engaged in a price war but control the resulting impacts

- Capacity: The main capacity in the focus on the accuracy and subtraction of effective marketing messages

- Targeted results: This approach contributes to increase the value derived from a particular market segment, which promotes customer loyalty

- The implications of the market value: This method is used in the base in developed countries

Third approach: to enter the war and maintain the momentum

Curriculum includes third company to join the price war with fierce counter-attack, but with the limitation of the scope and intensify its participation.

- Messages and tools: messages are focused and durable and more effective when directed to a slide is not excessive sensitivity to price volatility.

- Capacity: This requires the administrative capacity disciplined approach to overcome obstacles arising along the trail competition

- Targeted results: This method can be applied to all markets

- The implications of the market value: With the adoption of this approach, companies can communications market share of the realizable value of certain segments, although potentially affected by overall market share.

Fourth approach: a new mechanism to fight

This approach differs fundamentally different from previous approaches; This approach aims to develop a new mechanism to fight through a radical change to the cost structure, where the initiative telecommunications companies to acquire structural cost advantage that can be used to develop a privileged position and sustainable prices.

And telecommunications companies can with this approach to develop a new set of capabilities and create a clear competitive advantage based on the three structural elements:
