Definition: Upselling is the practice of encouraging customers to purchase a comparable higher-end product than the one in question, while cross-selling invites customers to buy related or complementary items. Though often used interchangeably, both offer distinct benefits and can be effective in tandem.
Cross-selling is the process of encouraging customers to purchase products or services in addition to the original items they intended to purchase. Oftentimes the cross-sold items are complementary to one another, so customers have more of a reason to purchase both.
The difference between cross-selling and upselling is in their names. Cross-selling adds to a sale through additional, lateral products that complement the initial purchase. Upselling adds to a purchase by selling a prospect an upgraded or enhanced version of the original product.
