  • Description: Brands often introduce line extensions hoping to increase sales. One potential problem is that extensions may cannibalize sales of existing items. We show that innovative extensions lead consumers to purchase higher quantities of existing items by making the brand appear more innovative. Thus, innovative extensions can lead to reverse cannibalization.
