Arja Whiteside (X) Oct 8, 2010:
A loss leader or leader is a product sold at a low price (at cost or below cost) to stimulate other, profitable sales. It is a kind of sales promotion, in other words marketing concentrating on a pricing strategy. A loss leader is often a popular article. Sometimes leader is now used as a related term and means any popular article, in other words one sold at a normal price.

neutral Timo Lehtilä : Ainakin Witionaryn mukaan 'sisäänvetotuote' olisi vain 'leader', kun taas 'tappiollinen sisäänvetotuote' olisi 'loss leader' http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/leader
