It is not common for shopping malls to do some promotional activities. But have you thought carefully about the mystery in this promotion? There will be no pie in the sky, which is a well-known proverb. So, it seems that there are preferential promotions, and there are hidden secrets behind them.
Give a formal example. A few days ago, my mother and I went to the mall to buy clothes, just in time for the promotion: the total price of 200 to 50 MINUS a quarter is quite cost-effective! Not long after, my mother picked out a skirt of 1795 yuan. 1795×? Because I haven't learned fractional multiplication, so I will? Decimal 0.25, that is
1795×0.25≈448 yuan. So you have to subtract 448 yuan. Then this skirt should be 1795-448 = 1347 yuan.
But the salesman said the price was 1395 yuan. Why? Since 1795 contains eight 200s, there should be eight 50s in the feedback price. So 8×50=400 is 1795-400 = 1395 yuan, but 1795 and 1800 yuan are only five yuan short, which leads to the loss of 50 yuan by 10 times!
From the marketing point of view, the price of 1795 has two advantages for shopping mall marketing. 1. But the mall made more money in 50 yuan. 2. 1795 is less than 1800, which is more acceptable psychologically and easier for salespeople to sell. In the end, it is business income!
I really don't know, I'm shocked!
