Answer 1

B. Both of these techniques can be used to increase the demand for the product.

Step-by-step explanation:

A catchy brand name and adequate marketing of a product plays a vital role in the relative demand of that product. Coca cola for example has properly advertised its products for decades now and when one thinks of beverage, you think Coke. It's been embedded in ones mind and that is the advantage of proper advertising and proper brand naming.
