    2. Batch Production
      1. Job production is good when demand is relatively low however when it increases it starts to struggle, a business may then switch to batch production. This is when a business will make 1 product a certain number of 1 product then change to a different product. When using batch production production can be split up into steps
      2. Flow Production
        1. Flow production can be used when a large amount of output can be sold into a mass market. This can result in a lower average cost due to economies of scale. Production is organised so it can be step by step on a production line.
