A Model of Consumer Behaviour


l

Consumer market behaviour

Consumers make buying decisions every day. And they make many different types of purchases. Most marketers undertake consumer research to try to learn more about: what consumers buy, who buys, how they buy, when they buy, where they buy and, most importantly, why they buy. The central question is:
w

How do consumers respond to the various marketing stimuli the marketing organisation might use?

Stages in Market Orientation

Three Major Steps in Target Marketing


1. Market segmentation

Mass marketing.
w

In mass marketing, the seller mass produces, mass distributes and mass promotes one product to all buyers Here, the seller produces two or more products that have different features, styles, quality, sizes and so on Here, the seller identifies market segments, selects one or more of them, and develops products and marketing mixes tailored to each

Product-variety marketing.
w

dividing a market into distinct groups of buyers with different needs, characteristics or behaviour who might require separate products or marketing mixes. evaluating each market segments attractiveness and selecting one or more of the market segments to enter. setting the competitive positioning for the product and creating a detailed marketing mix.

Market Segmentation
l

Figure 7.1: Steps in Segmentation, Targeting, and Positioning

Markets consist of buyers, and buyers differ in one or more ways.


They may differ in their wants, resources, locations, buying attitudes and buying practices and preferences for buying channels such as ordering by mail, phone, the Internet or from a physical location. w Because buyers have unique needs and wants, each buyer is potentially a separate market. Ideally, then, a seller might design a separate marketing program for each buyer.

Selecting Market Segments


After evaluating different segments, a company hopes to find one or more market segments worth entering. It must then decide which and how many segments to serve. l A target market consists of a set of buyers sharing common needs or characteristics that the company decides to serve. The company can adopt one of three market-coverage strategies:
l undifferentiated marketing, differentiated marketing or w concentrated marketing.

Figure 7.3: Alternative market-coverage strategies


Company Company Marketing Marketing Mix Mix
A. Undifferentiated Marketing

Undifferentiated marketing
w

a company might decide to ignore market segment differences and go after the whole market with one market offer. It focuses on what is common in the needs of consumers rather than on what is different. a company decides to target several market segments, and designs separate offers for each. By offering product and marketing variations, it hopes for higher sales and a stronger position within each market segment is especially appealing when company resources are limited. Instead of going after a small share of a large market, the company goes after a large share of one or a few sub-markets.

After launching the new product, management wants the product to enjoy a long and happy life. l Although it does not expect the product to sell forever, management wants to earn a decent profit to cover all the effort and risk that went into it. l Management is aware that each product will have a life cycle, although the exact shape and length is not known in advance.

What is Price?
Price is the amount of money charged for a product or service, or the sum of values consumers exchange for the benefits of having or using the product or service l Price is the only element of the marketing mix that produces revenue-all other elements represent costs l A company does not usually set a single price, but rather a pricing structure that covers different items in its product line l The company adjusts product prices to reflect changing costs and demand and to account for variations in buyers and situations

General Pricing Approaches


The price the company charges will be between one that is too low to produce a profit and one that is too high to produce any demand l Product costs set a floor to the price; consumer perceptions of the products value set the ceiling. l The company must consider competitors prices and other external and internal factors to find the best price between these two extremes.

General Pricing Approaches

Cost-Plus Pricing
The simplest pricing method is cost-plus pricing adding a standard mark-up to the cost of the product. Construction companies, for example, submit job bids by estimating the total project cost and adding a standard mark-up for profit.

Cost Vs Value Based Pricing


Cost-Based Pricing Value-Based Pricing

Value-based pricing uses buyers perceptions of value, not the sellers cost, as the key to pricing. The company uses the non-price variables in the marketing mix to build up perceived value in the buyers minds. Price is set to match the perceived value.

Advertising consists of one-way, non-personal communication with target consumer groups. In contrast, personal selling involves two-way, personal communication between salespeople and individual customerswhether m face-to-face, m by telephone, m through video conferences, m or by other means.
