“Wanna Supersize That?” Consumers’ Choice of Superior Options
This research provides a clarification of the consumer’s decision process underlying an upsell choice and answers the question of when and why consumers decide in favor of a superior option. It shows that consumers’ choice depends upon initial cognitive effort investments and the framing of the upsell arguments.
