Brief Explanations:

• Bait - and - switch: This is an unethical marketing tactic where a seller lures customers with an attractive offer (bait) and then tries to switch them to a more expensive or less - desirable product. It is a promotional tactic.
• Clearance: Sellers use clearance sales to promote the sale of old inventory. They advertise clearance items to attract customers and move stock.
• Closeout: Similar to clearance, closeout sales are used to promote the final sale of a particular product line or inventory.
• Liquidation: Liquidation is a process that occurs when a business is closing down or going bankrupt. It is about selling all assets (not just inventory in a promotional sense) to pay off debts. It is not a promotional tactic used in the normal course of business to increase sales of products for a going - concern seller.
