Consumer Behavior: The buying behavior of final consumers,
individuals & households who buy goods & services for personal consumption.
Customers vs. Consumers:
Customer: customer means who purchases the product from the marketer or from the retailer or from the wholesaler. Here we don’t bother about who uses the product.
Consumer: consumer means who uses the product of course purchased by the customer. Here we consider finally who is going to use the product we call them as consumer.
The Ultimate Consumer:Those individuals who purchase for the purpose of individual or household consumption.
Significance in Daily Lives:
Much of our time spent directly in the Marketplace, shopping or engaging in other activities.
A large amount of additional time is spent thinking about products & services, talking to friends about them.
Seeing or hearing advertisements about them.

Although some countries may have some things in common ,their values, attitudes and behaviours often vary greatly. So, international marketers must understand their differences and adjust their products & marketing program accordingly.

48
B/c they emerge:

• obsessive behaviour – mind is filled with one particular thing

For e.g.,• A/c to one classic study concluded:• Consumer resist ‘prunes’ b/c they’re wrinkled • and remind people of sickness and old age

Abraham Maslow(1908-1970 ) sought to explain:
Why people are driven by particular needs at particular times?
Why does one person spend much time and energy on:
Personal safety ?
On gaining the esteem of others?52
Human needs are arranged in Hierarchy
i.e.
“From the most pressing to the least pressing”
From Bottom to Top
53
In order of importance they are:1. Physiological needs (hunger, thirst)
Daily usage commodities, for e.g.*wheat *milk *water etc.
2. Safety needs (security, protection)* Health Protection *Insurances *Provident Funds etc.

business?• What are the trends to make ROI’s?
Realization• How to minimize risks?!• Why not to invest in a running business?
56
Perception:“To form a meaning full picture of the world”Two people with similar motivation might act quite differentlyFor e.g.
* Buyer A of Stereo System considers a fast talking sales person loud or insincere.
* Buyer B of Stereo System considers the same person intelligent & helpful.
Why perceptions are different of Buyer A & B?
57
B/c of the Flow of Information through our five senses:
•Sight •Sound•Smell•Touch•Taste
These five senses receives in an individuals way using:
* Short-term memory * Long-term memory
58
Three perceptual processes:
1. Selective exposure - consumer’s attention For e.g., a person exposed to more than 1500 ads a day – be precise/specific.
2. Selective distortion – understanding consumer’s mindsets For e.g., Nike Australia’s Annual sales from 500K to 1.3M in reducing their joggers prices.
3. Selective retention – retain info. that supports people’s attitude & beliefs.For e.g., Nokia makes mobile sets for all age, group peoples.
