It then decided it could off-set the lower price by removing the pads from retail stores and offering them exclusively through their own website. After implementation of their marketing strategy, sales plummeted for the sketchpad. What question should the company have asked itself about the promotion of its sketchpad before implementing their new marketing strategy

Therefore that the company's employees may have asked themself before the question of how the new price would impact in the consumers eventually.
