The Negative and Positive Consequences of Placing Products Next to Promoted Products
This research investigates how promoting a product influences the sales of products located proximally versus distally to the promoted product. We find that a promoted product decreases sales of proximal, relative to distal, products when the set of products are strong substitutes and that the effect reverses for weak substitutes.
