Why discounts are important?

Attract New Customers

The customer acquisition process starts with building awareness and interest, and discounts are a proven way to do just that. Consumers are attracted by discounts and tend to share them via word-of-mouth—an efficient way to reach new customers while keeping customer acquisition costs in check.

Is 20% a good discount?

20% off has a nice ring to it. Customers can work out how much they are saving in real terms. It's a good discount without being incredibly generous. To a certain extent, the same is true of the slightly less popular 33% category.

What is the best discount percentage?

The most common way to offer a discount is with a percentage based discount. Online retailers use small discounts (5-10% off), larger discounts (15-25% off) as incentives to purchase. It's also common to see brands discount 50% or more to clear out old and excess inventory.

Why do people like discounts?

So why does it attract customers? The main reason discounts attract customers is the loss aversion principle. Additionally, discounts create a sense of happiness by releasing oxytocin, generate excitement, and make the customer feel smarter because they saved money.
