Paraphrasing from the recent "Supermarkets: The tricks of the trade"
episode of "Tonight": A supermarket sells two kinds of wine, one for £ 3.79 (Brand A) and another for £ 4.49 (Brand B), which differ only in quality. On average, about two-thirds of customers buy Brand A and one-third buy Brand B. Problem: Increase total turnover on these items without cutting or raising prices. Solution: Introduce a third and better kind of wine (Brand C) selling at £ 9.99. It turns out that even though very few customers will buy Brand C, about half of those who used to buy Brand A will shift to Brand B, thereby increasing total turnover. http://www.itv.com/news/2016-01-21/s...trade-tonight/ -- Bob The joint that time is out of www.kanyak.com |
