Question

How does surface area and volume play a role in marketing products?

Answer 1

Well, this is pretty open ended, but one factor is product placement on shelves. A company has to pay to put their products on shelves, so they might want it to take up as little room as possible to keep costs down.

Answer 2

Volume would be a factor for selling something like soft drinks or laundry detergent... consumers want the biggest bang for their buck.
