Sales promotions , such as “buy one get one free”, “mix and match”, “cheapest free” plus kits increase sales as well as releasing working capital from poor selling or older items. Promotions can also be used to drive up volume of sales by cheaper price breaks for more items purchased , or supplier. promotional voucher schemes.
