• After a person buys one product, upsell or cross-sell them another related product
• Bundle products and offer a discount
• Offer “greater” versions of their existing purchase
“Want fries with that?”
Upsell and cross-sell
34
• Make it a system!• Design product funnel that
automatically moves clients from one purchase to the next
• First offer should happen at initial point of purchase
Upsell and cross-sell

Some suggestions:• Look for logical ways to “increase” or
“extend” the benefit of the original purchase
• Offer a down-sell option• Look for a recurring-revenue option• Follow up with customers after they
leave!

cards/gifts• Customer anniversaries• Customer appreciation offers• “Share with a friend” referral offers
