What’s the difference between cross selling and up selling?
Both involve a customer buying more stuff from you than they’d originally intended. But cross selling and up selling are very different.
-
cross selling involves selling related goods or services. If you’re in the process of selling someone a wedding outfit you could also offer them a matching hat, shoes and handbag
-
up selling involves selling a more expensive or exclusive version of the same thing. If you’re in the process of selling a £99 tent you could persuade your customer to buy the next model up for £120
