  26. PART 2:CONSUMER BEHAVIOR SEGMENTATION tells us who they are. CONSUMER BEHAVIOR RESEARCH tells us what motivates them. We’ll now look at a few models of human Behavior so that we can motivate people.

  27. CONSUMER BEHAVIOR TO INFLUENCE CONSUMERS, WE NEED TO KNOW WHAT MOTIVATES THEM • -PSYCHOLOGICAL FACTORS • NEEDS AND WANTS • PERCEPTIONS • ATTITUDES, VALUES • -SOCIAL FACTORS • CULTURE • SUB-CULTURE • FAMILY, PEERS

  28. Marketers Tend to Focus on Psychogenic (innate) Needs • Need for Achievement • Value personal accomplishment • Need for Affiliation • Desire being in the company of other people • Need for Power • Control one’s environment • Need for Uniqueness • Desire to assert one’s individual identity • Examples of products focused on these needs?

  29. Another Model of Needs:Maslow’s Hierarchy - Holds that Needs Evolve as Society or a Consumer Develops Self Actualization Esteem Social Safety Physiological

  30. Values--Identify What is Good and Desirable • Values are higher level motives that tell us how desirable a given goalis (e.g., beautify the world, comfortable life, self respect). • Cultural values – values common to one’s culture (e.g., achievement, autonomy, interdependence) • Consumption-specific values – values related to the process of buying (e.g., convenience, friendly service) • Product-specific values – values related to a particular product (e.g., flexibility, speed, natural materials, creative)

  31. POSITIONING • Where is product positioned in the minds of target market with respect to other products? • Head-on (Duracell vs. Energizer) • Brand Dominance (Coke: the real thing) • Product Differentiation (Jolt Cola) • Technical Innovation (Gillette Mach 3) • Lifestyle (gum, body spray)

  32. Type of Positioning? • http://ca.youtube.com/watch?v=NDwEE_1ESMU&feature=related • http://ca.youtube.com/watch?v=4d4kQrLhhPw

  33. Types of Involvement • Rational and emotional involvement • Rational involvement would be devoid of any affect e.g. Choice of steam iron , the consumer would try to optimise a cost-benefit ration with no emotion or interest toward product category - pleasure is absent • Emotional involvement might include hedonic pleasure eg. Choice of restaurant (Hirschman and Holbrook, 1982)
