S2E05 - Buy Less: How Some Companies Profit By Asking You to Spend Less

S2E05 - Buy Less: How Some Companies Profit By Asking You to Spend Less

Season 2 Episode 5 Published 12 years, 11 months ago
Description

This week on Under The Influence, we look at the companies that actually profit by asking you to BUY LESS.


We’ll explore a burger company that asks its customers to eat less beef, a printing company helps you print less, why Gillette has suddenly started encouraging men to change blades less often, and why a clothing company insists that you buy less of their apparel.


It’s a completely counter-intuitive marketing strategy, but each of these companies is doing more business than ever.
