For indies yes, however, for larger publishers you run the risk of taking sales away from your other books by promoting a single title so I suspect it gets more complicated the more frontlist titles you have at any given time. BPH's seem to have mostly stuck on the idea of dropping the price of the previous book in a series to boost author ranking instead. I am now approximately 1 book behind in most of the series I follow and saving a fortune
