LITERATURE REVIE0
For centuries sales "romotion as been muc 'no#n. !raders ave been used free sam"les, money*off and additional "rice ;e.g. t#o for one< etc. to attract customers for a long time. ; Egan, 2007 <. American Marketing Association (AMA),
1988 defined te sales "romotion as a media and non*media mar'eting demands a""lied for a "rearranged, sort time in order to stimulate trial and im"ulse "urcases, increase consumer demand, or im"roved "roduct +uality (Wells et al., 2003).
$t as been establised in literature tat only consumers #it re"eat "urcases are "rofitable. $t is not every re"eat "urcase tat is connected to consumer’s commitment of a brand. Ho#ever, consumer’s commitment is im"ortant for a re"eat "urcase. !erefore, business o"erators need to develo" mar'eting "rogrammes tat #ill not only reinforce customer’s commitment but also encourage re"eat "urcases. - "art of te functions of sales "romotion is not only to reinforce commitment of consumers but to encourage re"eat "urcases. Effects of sales "romotion on consumer beaviour ave been #idely studied in literature .Sales "romotion as effects on various as"ects of consumer’s "urcase decisions suc as brand coice, "urcase time, +uantity and brand s#itcing consumers ’ sensitivity to "rice Ho#ever, #eter te effect of consumer loyalty and "urcasing beaviour could be moderated by sales "romotions as not yet been e%amined e%tensively. >egardless of a #ides"read interest in te relationsi" bet#een sales "romotion and "urcasing beaviour, most studies of tis 'ind focus on te effect of sales "romotions on coice at te time tey are offered Dnly a fe# ave investigated te lag effect of sales "romotions on brand "reference and te resultant buying beaviour once te "romotion cam"aign is rescinded. Sales "romotions could be in form of monetary and non*monetary ones.
Sales &romotion is needed to create #enever a mar'eter #ants to enance te value of its "roduct by offering additional incentive to "ay for a brand or "roduct. Sales "romotion is a "ractice tat combining a set of communication tools and tecni+ues, im"lemented #itin te frame#or' of te mar'eting "lan intended b y te firm, in order to "ersuade among te target grou"s, and also te acce"tance or te variation of a consuming or "urcase beaviour in te sort and long term.
