Based on an average value coupon or other buying incentive, approximately 10% or 40 shoppers of the 400 shoppers studied bought the product. Of the 40 shoppers approximately 10% or 4 shoppers will return to the store to buy the sampled product without any incentive other than the fact that they or their family like it. In store demos vary in cost, but a reasonable estimate would be around $125, plus the product. Assuming this average, the cost to add each of these four shoppers would be about $37.50. THE END
