I thoroughly enjoyed reading your post. I didn't realize how many ties Verizon actually has in the market, therefore making its promotional value so influential in society. I personally believe that Amazon is the internet's version of Walmart and is so convenient to the economy. Amazon allows the consumer to purchase from home which is perfect in the "on the go" era in the market. Plugging products is a great way to expand the brand and allows companies to generate not only additional profit but further develop brand loyalty and build trust with the customer. It also assist with generating new consumers who may be unaware of brands who are or are not related.
