No.: 30863 Cross-selling

?

Technically speaking, does the new Porsche 917K Pustefix with item number 30863 actually fall under cross-selling or not?
Definition of Cross-Selling:
Cross-selling is a marketing term that refers to a retailer’s or manufacturer’s effort to sell additional, complementary products or services alongside a popular item, with the goal of improving sales efficiency and increasing revenue.
Carrera & Most club members are aware that the Austrian company Stadlbauer, owner of , acquired the long-established firm Dr. Rolf Hein GmbH CoKK in Tübingen—the manufacturer of Pustefix—a few years ago (and if not, now you know).
And what do you do to draw attention to the other product? Well, you just build a Pustefix race car! That’s how you draw attention to the other product, which is distributed by the same company anyway.
Because there was never anything like that in the original. Especially not on the Porsche 917K, the classic race car from German automotive history in the 1970s.
The Porsche is a matter of taste—a few of my fellow co-hosts don’t like it, and opinions are about fifty-fifty. That’s probably why they came up with the idea to release the car as a limited edition. In any case, the Porsche has been brought to life in a way that’s true to its era—it could have easily looked like this on the racetrack back in the ’70s.
The Porsche’s yellow-and-blue paint scheme is appealing; if it weren’t for the Pustefix bear on it, you could easily mistake the 917 for a Bilstein model.
