Reflections of a BizDrivenLife:

If you are selling premium items, one way to increase your market reach and customer base may be to downsell. Create a low cost, easy to purchas e alternative that are meaningful to your target customers, and yet does not need a big decision or commitment in time or money.

    This can be argued (just like everything else in the world).

    It all depends on your brand and your customer. Sometimes lowering cost can kill a brand that is being perceived as a “High end”, “Expensive”, “High quality” brand.

    This is why Mercedes sells Chrysler and Intel sells Celeron. All they did is separate the cheap stuff from the expensive.
