Definition
A line extension is a new product marketed by an organization that already has at least one other product being sold in that product/market area.
Line extensions are usually new flavors, sizes, models, applications, strengths, etc.
Sometimes the distinction is made between near line extensions (very little difference) and distant line extensions (almost completely new entries).
