Response to Will Redding

Do you think this is a good market strategy for Best Buy? Do you think this policy will help with Best Buy's poor stock performance?


After reading Will's post I believe Best Buy is using the right marketing strategy. They are currently working harder to make their customers base larger. This idea of matching prices will cause more people to go there. I think that this is a very smart idea. In the long run I believe they will gain money because they will have more people coming to them. 

Different Advertisements

Have you ever noticed when you go on websites like Facebook, Twitter, Instagram and other social networks there are advertisements that are related to things you are interested in. Recently, I have noticed this more then normal. Websites I have been on to online shop are showing up under these social networks. If the website has a sale or a new item I instantly know about it because of this. This form of advertisement is different then ones we have done in the past. We are no longer only using commercials and billboards to learn about new items we are interested in. We have these on are pages that are literally focused on our own interests. Do you believe this form of advertisement is better then other forms?
