Not analysing their consumer’s need and adapting to proper marketing policy, it had a vertical fall. In upcoming years Blackberry waited for an opportunity to regain control over the market but, till today not much has been recovered. What went wrong that once a leader, Blackberry, lost its market and is struggling hard to get back what is been lost? An analysis from marketing perspective.
