The article deals with downsizing - one of the less known instruments applied in the marketing policy of enterprises. Downsizing is a product strategy which relies on the decrease of the unit size of the product, and also its packaging, to maintain its price. The use of this instrument , which is quite common in enterprises producing consumer goods, is limited by psychological factors. The author presented in detail the possibilities of the use of this strategy and the principle it is based on, namely the Weber law. Weber also pointed out the negative sides of downsizing.
