Disruptive Innovation Theory:
It is an effective strategy which refers to the concurrent pursuit within the market of
bringing new product considering the suitable and effective presence. New firms business
models differs significantly from incumbent. It occurs from the nascent to the mainstream as it is
the process not the service or product. It is the most important theories of innovations and which
provides the explanation to how and why it is established, big companies one day get befall by
smaller companies and this is why it introduced the theory of disruptive innovation. The purpose
of this theory is creating as well as capturing the market space (Kuo and Smith, 2018). The
primary is making their prominent presence, capture new demand and make competition as
introducing new products with superior, innovative and attractive features. Through this the
2

company can bring easily more and more customers towards making more profits and offerings.
There are basically two types of disruptive innovation which are new market disruption and low
end disruption. It is the process of transforming expensive or sophisticated goods and services
into more accessible, affordable and simpler to a broader population. It is more beneficial for an

consumer and market the company has launched its new products which is hygiene and safe for
using the products at home. By the help of disruptive theory of innovation it will increase the
company's profit share, market share and goodwill in the market appropriately by providing
sanitizer in the vacuum cleaner (Lecerf and Omrani, 2020). It will attain the competitive
advantages by serving the innovative goods and services in the existing or new market over their
competitors. Apart from this, tit will also go around the finding a place where a very less or few
firms are operating and there is no pressure of pricing to the company. It is used to change the
services and goods into simple and affordable for bottom-tier or traditionally unmarketable
consumer. It established the new product that is sanitizer in vacuum cleaner by creating new
market segment and analysis of the demand and need and wants of the consumers and at what
price they are capable to buy the product effectively and efficiently (Zhu, Wang and Wang,
2018). This will help in successfully launching its new products in its target audience.
