‘A toy car free with maggi noodles' is an example of one of the techniques of Sales Promotion. Name the technique and explain two other techniques with examples.
The name of this technique is ‘Product Combination’. Under it, along with the main product some other product is offered to the customer as a gift. Two other techniques are given below:
(i) Lucky Draw: Under this method, the customers of a particular product are offered gifts on a fixed date and the winners are decided by the draw of lots. While purchasing the product, the customers are given a coupon with a specific number printed on it. On the basis of this number alone the buyer claims to have won the gift. For example, ‘Buy a bathing soap and get a gold coin’ offer can be used under this method.
(ii) Usable Benefits: Under this method, coupons are distributed among the consumers on behalf of the producer. Coupon is a kind of certificate telling that the product mentioned therein can be obtained at special discount. It means that if a customer has a coupon of some product he will get the discount mentioned therein whenever he buys it. Possession of a coupon motivates the consumer to buy the product, even when he has no need of it. Such coupons are published in newspapers and magazines. Some companies distribute coupons among its shareholders. Sellers collect the coupons from the customers and get the payment from the company that issues the same.
