Business Marketing. Here Is Just Some Of The Information You Will Find Inside.
Consumer Behavior
Each consumer is a decision-making unit who collects information and uses many dimensions to analyze it. The resulting decision is the purchase or rejection of a product or service.
The Buying Decision Process
When making a decision to buy a product from many competing products, a consumer unknowingly passes through a few stages of the decision process.
Nicosia Flow Chart Model of Consumer Behavior
Using a computer flow-chart system, this model shows the input, processor and output variables together with their relationships towards reaching a decision that will solve current and future problems of the consumer.
Marketing Implications
This model is scientific enough to help marketers gain an insight into the consumer behavior process. By stating what happen at each stage, the firm can apply the right marketing decision to improve the probability that the consumer purchases the product/service.
Complete Model of Buying Behavior
This model is an improvement on the Black box model. It contains such elements as Information input and the Processing unit (which has product evaluation, general motivation and personal inputs).
Howard and Sheth Model of Consumer Behavior
It presents the decision-making process in a most elaborate manner. The means of blending the inputs with intervening variables and the resultant outputs are indicated in the four components of the model.
Endogenous Variables or Hypothetical Construct
From the perception aspect, the consumer is made to consider information that relates to his past experience, personality and need, for a product category. He develops sensitivity by applying perceptual vigilance and perceptual defense to a given product.
Andresen Model of Complex Customer Decision
It is assumed that the consumer selectively perceives and distorts product information in a way that is different from the original messages from the company. By drawing information from this reference group, personality needs and their attitude about complimentary products, the consumer filters and perceives the product messages.
Learning Influence on the Consumer
Learning has stages that an individual passes through. Each stage has a marketing implication. Product message and information from their social environment arouses the need for a product by the consumer.
Connectionist Theory
This asserts that a consumer can be made to change behavior by conditioning him over time. This requires presenting the person with stimuli about a product that will make him respond.
Cognitive Theory
This theory views learning as a process of restructuring a person's cognition (knowledge) with regards to a specific problem. The person uses distinctive and systematic reasoning and intellectual activity to solve the problem.
Tolman's Latent Learning Theory
This is also a form of cognitive theory. It shows that learning goes on without the presence of reward but, when good reward appears, previous information is used to enhance it.
Attitude in Relation to Consumer Behavior
A person develops their attitudes through past experience. That can be direct or indirect and are enhanced by physical and social cues in the environment. Once it is formed, the person directs his attitude to the object or person and this influences his perception.
Functions of Attitude
Attitude directs the consumer towards products that satisfy his needs and away from unsatisfactory ones. The person can defend his integrity, prestige and ego by having reasons to support his feelings.
Marketing Implication of Attitude in Consumer Behavior
Attitude helps a marketer to measure the effect of advertising on behavior. Public opinions about social or political issues are known through the attitude of people. People with a positive attitude tend to react favorably to an advertised product.
Factors that Resist Attitude Change
The personal factors from intelligence, self-concept, etc., are more durable and resistant to attitude change. A person that belongs to a group and largely depends on the cohesive group norms, does not easily accept change unless it is compatible with changes in the group's norms.
Attitude and Persuasive Communication
Some attitudes make a consumer develop an interest in a product. Marketers have an obligation to use all suitable communication methods to make consumers form good attitudes toward their products.
Planning of Persuasive Communication
Draw the total amount of money (budget) needed to implement all the communication elements. Implement the program at the same time to feel the impact on consumers' attitudes.
Factors that Influence Consumer Behavior
It is necessary to understand these facts so that we can appreciate the decision-making pattern of the consumer and his or her behavior in the target market.
Primary Group or Membership Group
This form of reference group includes family, friends, neighbors, workmates, etc. An individual has a regular face-to-face interaction with them and they can largely affect his behavioral patterns.
General Implication of Group in Marketing
A Reference group serves as the basis for comparing product; source of information to reduce perceived risks and source of sanitation for wrong behavior.
Economic Factors Effects on Consumer Behavior
Economic theorists believe that a market for any product consists of identical buyers who are rational. The buyers possess perfect information about the market and use it to get optimum value for their efforts and money.
Consumers' Income Expectation
If consumers have a high expectation for a given income, they could be motivated to spend a high proportion of their income to purchase different items.
Consumer and Consumer Organizations
Court cases are used to seek redress from unethical marketing and production practices, vandalization, burning and looting of business houses that are discovered to be exploiting consumers.
Important Factors To Consider. Understanding Consumer Behavior
Consumers consist of individuals, households, and corporate bodies that buy products or services. They are widely varied in the way they react to products and other stimuli. Each consumer is a decision-making unit who collects information and uses many dimensions to analyze it. The resulting decision is the purchase or rejection of a product or service.
The difference in consumers and factors that they consider to make a purchase decision are important to marketers. Marketers need to understand the type of stimuli that can yield a favorable response from consumers and also to identify the factors and interactions that go into decision-making.
The careful study and understanding of consumers requires the marketer to design an effective marketing plan.
