The style of products has not been quite successful, resulting in lesser demand from customers.

Is 'lesser' correctly used? Are there any errors in the sentence?

Many thanks.

Lesser demand? Less than what?

There should be a comparative statement indicating the previous style was more successfull.

The New style of product has not been successfull, resulting in lesser demand....

This style of product....... resulting in low demand.....

The new line (rather than style) of products has not been successful and customer orders have declined.

You could say "a lesser demand" or alternatively "less demand".
