Answer 1

c. primary demand stimulation

Step-by-step explanation:

Primary demand stimulation entails educating the customers about the benefits of an entire product category as opposed to a particular brand.

In this instance, FireFighters is not promoting its product over the products of its competitors but is educating the public on the importance of smoke detectors as a whole. This is primary demand stimulation.
