Companies who introduce new product or service for the very first time in the market are known as first movers. They have the advantage of capturing the large market share by developing a strong brand image before any competitor enters the market. They are independent to set the quality and price of the new product.
First movers face the competition from the competitors who try to copy the brand or challenge it by improving the product but the strong brand image and customer base help first mover to take a large share from the market.
First movers have the risk of product failure if the product did not perform according to the market expectations. Amazon or eBay are enjoying first-mover advantage despite a large number of competitors.
