Product Bundling is a marketing strategy that involves offering several products for sale as one combined product. This strategy is very common in the software business (for example: bundle a word processor, a spreadsheet, and a database into a single office suite). It is most successful when :
- a) there are economies of scale in production,
- b) there are economies of scope in distribution,
- c) consumers appreciate the resulting simplification of the purchase decision and benefit from the joint performance of the combined product,
- d) when the marginal costs of bundling are low.
- e) when production set-up costs are high,
- f) when customer acquisition costs are high
