2.Personal selling promotion
• Personal Selling is an effective
way to manage personal
customer relationships. The
sales person acts on behalf of
the organisation. They tend to
be well trained in the
approaches and techniques of
personal selling.
• However sales people are very
expensive and should only be
used where there is a genuine
return on investment. For
example salesmen are often
used to sell cars or home
improvements where the
margin is high.

Problems with sales promotions

can devalue the brand –

Aston Martin on offer?
• Promotions don’t build
brand loyalty they just
increase sales in the
short-term – exception
is Clinique bonus time
