| Tiivistelmä: | Consider a seller who faces two customer segments with differing valuations of guality of a durable product. Should he introduce two differentiated products at once or one at a time? Under the simultaneous strategy the lower quality would cannibalize demand for the higher quality. To reduce cannibalization, the seller could lower the quality of the low-end model and reduce the price of the high-end one. Alternately, he could increase the quality of the low-end model but delay its release. Sequential introduction, however, would mean that profits from the low-end model arrive later. It is shown that sequential introduction is better than simultaneous introduction when cannibalization is a problem. |
