 and premiums. Sales promotions are likely to turn them into loyal
 brand users.

Advantages of Sales Promotion
 It stimulates in the consumers an attitude towards the product.
 It creates a better incentive in the consumers to make a purchase. It is
 a demand creator.
 It gives direct inducement to the consumers to take immediate action.
 It is flexible. It can be used at any stage of a new product
 introduction.
 Sales promotion leads to low unit-cost, due to large-scale production
 and large-scale selling.
 It is an effective supporter of sales. It helps the salesman and makes
 his effort more productive.
Sales promotion is effective when:

a) A new brand is introduced.
b) We have to communicate a major improvement or attraction in
   product.
c) Enlarging the result of advertising.
d) Increasing the number of retail stores in order to sell out
   products.
e) Engaging or embarking upon aggressive sales campaign.
Disadvantages of Sales Promotion
 Sales promotions are only supplementary devices to supplement
 selling efforts of other promotion tools.
 Sales promotion activities are having temporary and short life.
 The benefits are also short-lived for three or four months. Then
 the demand will fall down.
 They are non-recurring in their use.
 There is a feeling in the minds of customers that sales
 promotional activity tools are used to sell inadequate or second
 grade products.
 Immediate increase in demand is stimulated by this. Hence it is a
 short-lived tool.
 It is expensive and leads to a rise in the price of products.
 Discounts or rebates are allowed by boosting the prices of the
 goods, with a view to sell at a gain, which is not real.


Sales promotion is ineffective when:
a) There is a declining market for an established brand.
b) There is no product improvement.
