Reasons for Promotion
Why do you think businesses use Sales Promotion?
• Build traffic in store• Create extra interest in product• Increase sales during down-period or heavy competition
• Motivate staff• Introduce new product, generate trial
• Stock clearance
Contests & Sweepstakes
• Award prize to select participant
• Can be used with other aspects of promotion
• Incentive to provide information
Refunds & Rebates
• Great for data collection because consumers supply information
• Low redemption rates = lower cost than straight discounts
• Common with electronics, i.e. Best Buy
Coupons
• Entitles you to a reduction in price of product or service
• Obtained from internet, mail, print ads, store register, other locations in store
• Redemption rate = % of coupons used – Measures effectiveness of
promotion– Avg redemption for direct mail
~3.5% vs. in-store ~6.5%
Premiums & Self-Liquidators
• Allow consumers to get something by purchasing something else– Premium = free product/service, often
called “Gift with Purchase”– Self-Liquidator = product or service at
substantially reduced price

samples with displayed product for purchase is Costco

service– Clear out old stock– Generate store traffic– To be competitive
during seasonal events (i.e. NOW!)
