3. WHAT IS CONSUMER BEHAVIOR
?

4. Consumer behavior is the study of individuals
and organizations and how they select and use
products and services.
It is mainly concerned with psychology,
motivations, and behavior.

5. The study of consumer behavior
includes:
- How consumers think and feel about different
alternatives (brands, products, services, and retailers).
- How consumers reason and select between different
alternatives.
- The behavior of consumers while researching and
shopping.
- How consumer behavior is influenced by their
environment (peers, culture, media).

6. WHY UNDERSTANDING CONSUMER BEHAVIOR IS IMPORTANT
FOR A MARKETER ?

7. Studying consumer behavior is important because this way
marketers can understand what influences consumers' buying
decisions. By understanding how consumers decide on a
product they can fill in the gap in the market and identify the
products that are needed and the products that are obsolete.

8. A consumer behavior analysis should reveal:
-What consumers think and how they feel about various alternatives (brands, products, etc.);
-What influences consumers to choose between various options;
-Consumers’ behavior while researching and shopping;
-How consumers’ environment (friends, family, media, etc.) influences their behavior.
-Consumer behavior is often influenced by different factors. Marketers should study consumer purchase patterns and figure out buyer
trends.

9. STUDYING CONSUMER BEHAVIOR ALSO HELPS
MARKETERS
DECIDE HOW TO PRESENT THEIR PRODUCTS IN A
WAY THAT GENERATES MAXIMUM IMPACT ON
CONSUMERS.
UNDERSTANDING CONSUMER BUYING BEHAVIOR
IS THE KEY SECRET TO REACHING AND ENGAGING
YOUR CLIENTS, AND CONVERT THEM TO
PURCHASE FROM YOU.

12. 4 Types of Consumer Behaviour
A consumer’s buying decision depends on the type of products that they
need to buy. The behavior of a consumer while buying a coffee is a lot
different while buying a car.
Based on observations, it is clear that purchases that are more complex
and expensive involve higher deliberation and many more participants.
There are four types of consumer behavior:
1.Complex buying behavior
2.Dissonance-reducing buying behavior
3.Habitual buying behavior
4.Variety seeking behavior

13. Complex buying behaviour
 Complex buying behavior is encountered particularly when consumers are
buying an expensive product. In this infrequent transaction, consumers are
highly involved in the purchase decision. Consumers will research
thoroughly before committing to invest.
 Consumer behaves very different when buying an expensive product or a
product that is unfamiliar to him. When the risk of buying a product is very
high, a consumer consults friends, family and experts before making the
decision.
 For example, when a consumer is buying a car for the first time, it’s a big
decision as it involves high economic risk. There is a lot of thought on how
it looks, how his friends and family will react, how will his social status
change after buying the car, and so on.

14. Dissonance-reducing buying behaviour
 In dissonance-reducing buying behavior consumer involvement is very high.
This might be due to high price and infrequent purchase. In addition, there is a
low availability of choices with less significance differences among brands. In
this type, a consumer buys a product that is easily available.
 Consumers will be forced to buy goods that do not have too many choices and
therefore consumers will be left with limited decision making. Based on the
products available, time limitation or the budget limitation, consumers buy
certain products without a lot of research.
 For example, a consumer who is looking for a new collapsible table that can be
taken for a camping, quickly decides on the product based on few brands
available. The main criteria here will be the use and the feature of the
collapsible table and the budget available with him.

15. Habitual buying behaviour
 Habitual Buying Behavior is depicted when a consumer has low involvement in a
purchase decision. In this case the consumer is perceiving only a few significant
differences between brands.
 When consumers are buying products that they use for their daily routine, they
do not put a lot of thought. They either buy their favorite brand or the one that
they use regularly – or the one available in the store or the one that costs the
least.
 For example, while a consumer buys a loaf of bread, he tends to buy the brand
that he is familiar with without actually putting a lot of research and time. Many
products fit into this category. Everyday use products, such as salt, sugar,
biscuits, toilet paper, and black pepper all fit into this product category.

16. Variety seeking buying behaviour
 In variety seeking consumer behavior, consumer involvement is low.
There are significant differences between brands. Here consumers often
do a lot of brand switching. The cost of switching products is low, and
hence consumers might want to try out new products just out of curiosity
or boredom. Consumers here, generally buy different products not
because of dissatisfaction but mainly with an urge to seek variety.
 For example, a consumer likes to buy a cookie and choose a brand
without putting much thought to it. Next time, the same consumer might
may choose a different brand out of a wish for a different taste. Brand
switching occurs often and without intention.
