Is the price you pay.
- B.
Sells that point.
Correct Answer

The benefit of a selling point is that it sells that point. In other words, the benefit of highlighting a particular feature or service is that it helps to convince potential customers to make a purchase. By emphasizing the value and advantages of a product or program, it becomes more appealing and persuasive to consumers, ultimately leading to increased sales. The price you pay is not the benefit in this context, as it is unrelated to the selling point itself.Rate this question:
