Topline findings and implications
![Page 19: Which is the largest market in China for Humvees?](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062315/56815be6550346895dc9db4b/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Consumer Lifestyle - attitudes to family
Family is more important thancareer for me
76.2%67.7% 67.5%
Tier 1 Tier 2 Tier 3
Families should make an effort to eattogether regularly
94.6% 89.0% 88.1%
Tier 1 Tier 2 Tier 3
Tier 1 residents feel almost guilty of giving their careers preference over family, hence justifying priorities to themselves.
Many Tier 2-3 families eat together anyway.
![Page 20: Which is the largest market in China for Humvees?](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062315/56815be6550346895dc9db4b/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Consumer Lifestyle - attitudes to life
I am satisfied with my life
53.6% 46.9% 46.9%
Tier 1 Tier 2 Tier 3
I am satisfied with my family’s livingstandard
55.3%44.6% 48.0%
Tier 1 Tier 2 Tier 3
Consumers living in tier 1 cities are more satisfied than those in the Tier 2-3.
Over half of those living in Tier 2-3 are not satisfied.
• “A big city has many more opportunities for earning and spending” – Nanning respondent
![Page 21: Which is the largest market in China for Humvees?](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062315/56815be6550346895dc9db4b/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Consumer attitudes - risk The majority plays safe, yet there i
s a substantial number of those willing to take risks – in equal measure across the tiers
• Nude portfolios in Nanjing
• “My daughter has left high school and is learning how to dance” – Mr Wang, Lanzhou
I like doing things that are a bit risky
37.7% 37.2% 37.0%
Tier 1 Tier 2 Tier 3
![Page 22: Which is the largest market in China for Humvees?](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062315/56815be6550346895dc9db4b/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Consumer attitudes - risk The majority remains debt-averse;
China continues to be a high savings nation.
Change marginally greater in Tier 1 cities
• “I am confident that I will get a raise this year and will pay off my credit card bills” – Jr. Executive in Shanghai.
I could take on debt to allow me to buythe things I want
20.1% 17.9% 18.9%
Tier 1 Tier 2 Tier 3
![Page 23: Which is the largest market in China for Humvees?](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062315/56815be6550346895dc9db4b/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
I consider myself an ambitious person
38.3% 34.5% 34.4%
Tier 1 Tier 2 Tier 3
Tier 1 residents are only slightly more ambitious than the lower tiers; the majority still does not consider itself very ambitious.
• “I want to be like Yo Yo Ma”
Consumer attitudes - ambition
![Page 24: Which is the largest market in China for Humvees?](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062315/56815be6550346895dc9db4b/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Again, small differences between the tiers. Lower tier consumers have huge access to fashion & beauty, even if it is not always branded. It’s also cheap.
• “Why should I spend 200 kuai on a pair of branded jeans when I can pick up 5 stylish pairs here?” – Young woman, Cenxi
I like to keep up to date with the latestfashions
35.8% 34.1% 37.7%
Tier 1 Tier 2 Tier 3
Consumer attitudes - fashion
![Page 25: Which is the largest market in China for Humvees?](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062315/56815be6550346895dc9db4b/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
I enjoy trying new things
59.1% 54.6% 53.5%
Tier 1 Tier 2 Tier 3
Novelty is a big draw. Consumers are looking for new ideas in every sphere of consumption. Again, across the tiers, and to a slightly greater extent in Tier 1.
Consumer attitudes - novelty
![Page 26: Which is the largest market in China for Humvees?](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062315/56815be6550346895dc9db4b/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Implications - 1• The brand stories, particularly those around the themes
of risk, fashion, family, ambition can be the same across the tiers.– However they need to be calibrated.– Risk-aversion can be countered with confidence.
• Brands and communication will need to offer the new even in the lower tiers – tired clichés and similar products will not work.
• Brands and communication for low tier consumers can actually make them feel good about their condition, rather than inadequate.
![Page 27: Which is the largest market in China for Humvees?](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062315/56815be6550346895dc9db4b/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Attitudes towards brands & advertising
Advertising helps me find productsor services that I want
67.7%61.9% 66.4%
Tier 1 Tier 2 Tier 3
Clear role for advertising – it is the source of knowledge about brands
Fair numbers find value in brands; greater numbers in Tier 1 cities
I am willing to pay extra to buy well-known brands
38.4% 34.7% 31.6%
Tier 1 Tier 2 Tier 3
![Page 28: Which is the largest market in China for Humvees?](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062315/56815be6550346895dc9db4b/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Attitudes towards the foreign
I prefer to buying foreign brand even theprice is higher
24.1% 17.8% 16.3%
Tier 1 Tier 2 Tier 3
I like to try products from other countries
36.4% 28.7% 26.6%
Tier 1 Tier 2 Tier 3
Openness to foreign brands significantly less in lower tier towns.
Greater price sensitivity …belief that foreign brands are more expensive.

Influences on purchase decision Price and brand are most important,
across the tiers
In Tier 1, people value their own experience; in Tier 2, others’ opinions matter; in Tier 3, packaging and salesperson’s / shopowner’s recommendation matters more.
• Reflects how and where they mostly shop

Do you first decide which shop to buy or which brand to buy?

Shop vs Brand - relative importance
General speaking,
the more expensive the product, the more important the brand!
![Page 35: Which is the largest market in China for Humvees?](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062315/56815be6550346895dc9db4b/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Influence of the Little Emperors
• Kids have significant influence on the family during shopping as sources of new information, but the proportion is lower as one moves down the tiers.
• They are among the first to latch on to new trends.
Children’s opinions should not beconsidered when doing family shopping

Influence of the Little Emperors
• “We spend 40% of our income on our son, to make sure he has a good education and is comfortable” – couple in Linxia, MHI: Rmb 1100
• “Bu jidao” – their son, upon being asked who the cartoon character on his T-Shirt was (it was Mickey Mouse)

Implications - 2
• Role of advertising / brand communication experienced by consumers is mostly informative.– Opportunity to use emotion, creating value systems
and move to imagery and storytelling.• MNC brands need not emphasize country of
origin. For the low tier, cultural assimilation would be a good strategy.
![Page 39: Which is the largest market in China for Humvees?](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062315/56815be6550346895dc9db4b/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
Implications - 2
• Tier 2 & 3 show a lower degree of shopping confidence and individuality than Tier 1 shoppers– Role of word of mouth much greater; need to motivate
shopowners / shop assistants as well as current users– Need for constant reassurance
• Opportunity to involve kids to spur brand choice and aid shopping, even in the low tier

Some other differences between the tiers …
