What upsell & cross-sell means in Social Media
An upsell moves the customer to a more expensive version of what they already buy: a software plan with more seats, a higher storage tier, a premium service level. The customer is solving the same problem—just with more capacity or capability. A cross-sell introduces a different but related product: a customer who bought a CRM is offered an email automation add-on; a customer who bought shoes is offered matching socks. Cross-selling expands the relationship into adjacent needs.
