English term or phrase: bait-and-switch
Definition from TapRun.com:
Advertising one product but pressuring (or only allowing) customers to purchase another (generally inferior or higher-markup) item.

Example sentence(s):
  • Another instance where buyers cry “bait-and-switch” when the tactic doesn’t really apply is when there are limited quantities of a particular product. A retail store owner could offer a product at a discount but also state that the offer would be available to the first ten or fifteen customers. Afterward, the product will be sold at its usual price. The event cannot be classified as a bait-and-switch strategy as the seller initially gave clear details regarding the offer. InvestingAnswers
  • If you’re using keywords that aren’t directly related to your product, service, or content, you’re using a bait-and-switch marketing tactic. You’re basically saying, “I have this thing you’re searching for!” But, when the visitor gets to your site, you give them something else. The Daily Egg
  • Victims of a bait-and-switch scam have some recourse when advertised products or services are not available as advertised. The consumer can sue for false advertising Money Crashers

strategjia e karremit


Definition from own experience or research:
Strategjia e karremit ka të bëjë me reklamimin e një produkti të cilësishëm, me të vetmin qëllim, adresimin e klientit drejt një produkti/produkteve të tjera më pak të cilësishme. Nganjëherë kjo taktikë përfshin pamundësinë e blerjes së produktit të reklamuar dhe mundësimin e blerjes vetëm të produktit të cilësisë më të ulët.

Example sentence(s):
  • Një shembull tjetër ku blerësit ankohen se kanë rënë viktima të strategjisë së karremit por që në të vërtetë nuk vlen, është kur bëhet fjalë për sasi të kufizuara të një produkti të veçantë. Një shitës me pakicë mund të ofrojë me ulje duke deklaruar njëkohësisht se kjo ofertë vlen për dhjetë apo pesëmbëdhjëtë klientët e parë. Pas kësaj produkti do të shitet me çmimin e zakonshëm. Kjo nuk mund të konsiderohet si strategji e karremit sepse shitësi që në fillim i ka deklaruar qartë kushtet e ofertës. - InvestingAnswers
