Contrary to popular belief, the attempt to understand consumer
behavior doesn’t end with the purchase.
Understanding how consumers use and dispose of products is
important as well.
Why?
Knowing who is actually using the product will affect the way
the product is marketed in the future
For example: If a household appliance (e.g., a vacuum) is
assumed to be used primarily by the wife, but in fact both
spouses use it, then the marketer may want to market it in a
different way (a different “target market”)Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education Canada Inc. 1-6

Why did consumer behavior become a
separate discipline from marketing?
Marketers came to realize that consumers did not always act or react as marketing theory suggested they would
Consumers rejected mass-marketed products, preferring differentiated products that reflected their own special needs, personalities and lifestyles
Even in industrial markets, where needs are more homogeneous than consumer markets, buyers exhibited diversified preferences and less predictable purchase behavior
![Page 9: Chapter 1: Introduction to Consumer Behaviourfreeuniversitybd.weebly.com/uploads/4/7/0/6/47064417/y_chapter_1... · Introduction to Consumer Behaviour ... models •Be influenced](https://reader030.vdocuments.mx/reader030/viewer/2022021501/5aa47f607f8b9afa758c0236/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Other factors that contributed to the
growing interest in consumer behavior
The accelerated rate of new product
development
The consumer movement
Public policy considerations
Environmental concerns
The opening of national markets
throughout the world

Consumer behavior is more than just
purchasing
Consumer Behavior involves
Exposure to the media
Browsing
Influencing others
Being influenced by others
Complaining about and returning products
![Page 11: Chapter 1: Introduction to Consumer Behaviourfreeuniversitybd.weebly.com/uploads/4/7/0/6/47064417/y_chapter_1... · Introduction to Consumer Behaviour ... models •Be influenced](https://reader030.vdocuments.mx/reader030/viewer/2022021501/5aa47f607f8b9afa758c0236/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Economics alone does not explain
consumer behavior
Early theories based on notion that individuals
act rationally to maximize their benefits
(satisfaction) from purchasing
Later research discovered that consumers are
just as likely to • Purchase impulsively
• Be influenced by family, friends, advertisers and role
models
• Be influenced just as strongly by mood, situation and
emotion

8. Focus on ethics
For much of history, business ethics
was considered an oxymoron
In the 1980’s, ethics became an issue
with the discovery of numerous
instances of corporate wrongdoing
– Ford Pinto
– Bhopal disaster
– Asbestos
– Tobacco
![Page 33: Chapter 1: Introduction to Consumer Behaviourfreeuniversitybd.weebly.com/uploads/4/7/0/6/47064417/y_chapter_1... · Introduction to Consumer Behaviour ... models •Be influenced](https://reader030.vdocuments.mx/reader030/viewer/2022021501/5aa47f607f8b9afa758c0236/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Ethical codes were enacted by
many companies and institutions
and ethics became part of the
curriculum of business schools
It is likely that ethics in marketing
will receive greater attention from
the public and from government
and private watchdog groups

9. Ecological consciousness
Studies show that:
Consumers consider themselves
“environmentalists”
They have changed their habits to protect
the environment
They are willing to pay more for products
that are considered environmentally safe
![Page 35: Chapter 1: Introduction to Consumer Behaviourfreeuniversitybd.weebly.com/uploads/4/7/0/6/47064417/y_chapter_1... · Introduction to Consumer Behaviour ... models •Be influenced](https://reader030.vdocuments.mx/reader030/viewer/2022021501/5aa47f607f8b9afa758c0236/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
An increasing flow of environmentally
friendly products
Positive shift in public attitudes toward
firms
and products that protect the
environment
As a result, the rise of green marketing
Greater potential for deception based
on false claims of environmental safety
of products
![Page 36: Chapter 1: Introduction to Consumer Behaviourfreeuniversitybd.weebly.com/uploads/4/7/0/6/47064417/y_chapter_1... · Introduction to Consumer Behaviour ... models •Be influenced](https://reader030.vdocuments.mx/reader030/viewer/2022021501/5aa47f607f8b9afa758c0236/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
10. The rise of the global village
An increasing acceptance of the free market
system in many foreign countries (e.g., Eastern
Europe)
Growth of major regional free-trade areas, such as
NAFTA and the EU, resulting in increased trade
Expansion of American media—including
advertising—to other nations exposes consumers
to availability of American goods

More markets opening up for
American products overseas
Marketers need to understand the
cultures of foreign countries to
market their products effectively
Potential for abuse arises
