There is no greater feeling of satisfaction to a customer than receiving a valued item/service at half the price or better yet, for free (without stealing of course!)

While this might seem like a calculated loss to the untrained business lot, it is actually a marketing tactic employed to retain existing customers while attracting potential ones as well.

In Kenya, there exists such marketing gimmicks in the form of promotional offers such as;

– Buy a particular product and get another for free.
– Buy a certain quantity at a discounted rate.

Other tactics include offering a particular/service absolutely for free albeit for a limited time period which is ‘notoriously’ rampant in the telecommunications sector predominantly led by the powerhouse that is Safaricom or having variations of a particular product such as making Safaricom bundles not to expire.

Despite its dominance, the network is always looking to increase its subscriber base through incentives in the form of free data.
