Transcript

Planned obsolescence. Designing products with limited lifespans to boost repeat purchases and sales volume. Loss better. A pricing strategy where a product is sold below cost to boost sales of more profitable items. Vendor lock in. Dependency on a vendor, making it challenging to switch to another without significant costs. Anchoring. When shown what a product or service costs before the promotion alongside the sale price, the initial price acts as an anchor. Clients that look at both prices will consider the new cheaper price a better deal than they would have if only the sale price were visible. Another example of anchoring would be showing an insanely expensive variation of a product, and then showing the one the marketer wants to sell, which will have a normal price. Rebranding. Changing brand elements like name, logo, or image to create a new identity and perception. Forced free trial. A forced free trial is a direct marketing technique where potential buyers are sent free samples of a product, often for periodic publications to encourage subscription. Point of sale display, promotional materials near checkout counters to attract customers attention and promote products. Decoy effect, it's the phenomenon whereby consumers will tend to have a specific change in preference between two options when also presented with a third option that is asymmetrically dominated. An option is asymmetrically dominated when it is inferior in all respects to one option. But in comparison to the other option, it is inferior in some respects and superior in others. Slow music. Supermarkets usually put slow music to make you feel less rushed and happy to spend more time and money in store. Razor and blades business model. The razor and Blade's business model involves selling one item at a low price or for free to boost sales of complimentary good, such as consumable supplies, seeding trial, allocating marketing to specific customers to stimulate word-of-mouth diffusion, blind taste tests. Companies use blind taste tests like the Pepsi challenge to compare brands, develop new products, and gather customer preferences. These tests help track views, assess product changes, and gauge reactions. Subliminal advertising. Using subliminal messages to boost a product sales. Hidden advertising. It occurs when advertisements are not sufficiently marked as ads. For example, an actor who keeps using the same brand of razors to cut his beard. Stealth marketing. Subtly introducing a product to consumers without them realizing they are being marketed to. Ambush marketing. A method where brands associate themselves with an event without paying sponsorship fees, leveraging the events visibility to gain attention. Foot in the door technique. Persuading someone to accept a significant request by first gaining their agreement to a smaller related request. Behavioral targeting. Using the consumers data to match ads aligned with their interests. Call to action. A specific prompt designed to encourage an immediate response or sale used in ads, web pages, and more. Book signing, book signings boost book value for collectors, with authors providing signatures and optional personalized dedications.
