Abstract

Retailers often adopt the pre-sale strategy to understand the needs of consumers, and then take more reasonable pricing decisions and sales decisions. Based on the perspective of retailers, this paper studies how to determine the optimal selection of sales channels and pricing strategy in the advance selling when retailers are faced with different market environments.
