Price
The pricing of the coffee and other eatables in the café are
priced premium because of the supplies and the quality of
the coffee which is being served to the customers from
time to time (Taecharungroj, 2017). The coffees in
Starbucks are not available in different sizes which are
creating a loss for the loyal customers in the organization.
It is due to the brand name, quality of products and
reputation of the company in the market that the customers
are attracted in this organization (Kate, 2019).
Promotions
Starbucks invests in promotions which are online,
televisions and print ads, etc (Hutt, 2016). There are a
lot of addition in the company which are healthy and
that is the trend of the customers which has to be
followed and the promotions have to be done from
time to time so that the company can have a better
customer base. For promotions, Starbucks is providing
the customers with free Wi-Fi, milk options and zero
charges for selected coffee (Bi, Teo and Yao, 2020).
