An example of this tactic can be seen with a lot Company who offers a dual garage door spring repair and replacement deal for $249, an offer that sounds too good to be true. When all costs are added up including advertising expenses, material costs, labor costs and technician compensation Those Companies barely makes any returns or profits from this deal. Despite this fact Garage Doors Company still advertises this deal online as they must attract new customers and generate calls or sales in order to keep their business running.
