    Answer: Razor and blade strategy

    Explanation:

    The Razor Blade Model is a model that is used by companies to deeply discount or give away a core product hoping that the consumers will buy the more expensive and complementary dependent products.

    The razor and blades business model is a model whereby one item is sold at a cheaper price or sometimes given for free so as to increase the sales of its complementary good. For example, ink catridges are required for inkjet printers and software and accessories are used for game consoles. So, selling ink catridges at a low rate can lead to more sales for inkjet printers.
