Overview: Logit choice models have been used extensively to study promotion response. This paper examines whether brand switching elasticities derived from these models may be over-estimated due to rational consumer adjustment of purchase timing to coincide with promotion schedules, and whether this bias can be addressed by a dynamic structural model. It concludes that reduced form model estimates of brand switching elasticities can be overstated, and that a dynamic structural model is best for addressing the problem.
