It is a common form of sales promotion. It is regarded as one of the most effective forms of special offers for goods. Originally, It was a sudden end-of-season or stock clearance method used by shops who were left with a large quantity of stock that they were looking to sell quickly. More recently it has become a popular, planned and considered marketing method. In the early 1980s, It was a popular marketing tool employed by record companies to sell compilation albums. These were double albums, but unattached as two stand-alone albums, but neither could be purchased separately. By the mid 1980s the novelty had largely worn off with the rise of the more usual double-album packages of Now That's What I Call Music. One article has argued that the success of this promotion lies in the fact that the price actually takes into account the fact that two items are being sold. Which Type Of Sales Promotion ?

The phrase was coined by Oliver Gingold of Dow Jones sometime in 1923 or 1924. Company folklore recounts that the term apparently got its start when Gingold was standing by the stock ticker at the brokerage firm that later became Merrill Lynch. Noticing several trades at USD$200 or USD$250 a share or more, he said to Lucien Hooper of W.E. Hutton & Co. that he intended to return to the office to "write about these type of stocks". Thus the phrase was born. It has been in use ever since, originally in reference to high-priced stocks, more commonly used today to refer to high-quality stocks. In contemporary media, these companies and their daily performances are frequently mentioned alongside other economic averages like the Dow Jones Industrial Average. Whats The Pharse ?
