The Cafe Business 13 / 37
5. Anchor items. Put a high-priced item next to a medium-priced item. Customers will compare and choose the medium-priced one, which is the one you want them to choose. It's called anchoring, and it's been proven to work.

I had a café where I placed a "Mega Mocha" (with double espresso, extra chocolate, whipped cream) for $7, and then a "Standard Mocha" for $5. The Standard Mocha outsold everything. Customers felt like they were getting a deal. I made more money off the Standard Mocha than I would have if I'd only offered it at $5 without the $7 anchor.
