The market penetration quadrant of the Ansoff matrix helps you determine
strategies to sell more of your existing products or services to your existing
customer base through aggressive promotion and distribution. Using this strategy,
the organization tries to increase its market share in its current market.

For example, if there are 300 million people in a country and 65 million of them
own cell phones, the market penetration of cell phones would be approximately
22%. In theory, there are still 235 million more potential customers for cell
phones, or 78% of the population remains untapped.
