Acontent analysis methodology was employed and a final conclusion was reached: that none of those classifications could provide comprehensive perception of the competitive strategies system which deservesevery organization's interest while managing relations with its markets. It was found that the model divides thepopulation into four categories: category of loyalists to organization's commodities, category of irresolute peopleto organization's commodities, category of disinterested people to organization's commodities and category ofpeople who boycott the organization's commodities.
