,Purpose And Perspective Of The Chapter
The Purpose Of This Chapter Is To Give Students An Overview Of What Consumer
Behaviour (Cb) Is And Why It Is Relevant To Them. A Consumer Makes A Decision With
The Intention Of Improving Their Life—That Is, Doing Something Of Value. The Process
Of Making A Purchase Starts A Chain Reaction Of Value-Creating Actions. As One Can See,
People’s Behaviour As Consumers Is Critically Important Not Just To Themselves But To
Many Other People. This Is Why So Many People, Not Just Marketing People, Are
Interested In Learning About Consumer Behaviour. It Is True That The Marketer Who
Understands Consumers Will Be Able To Design Products With Greater Value Potential
And Thus A Greater Chance Of Enhancing The Well- Being Of Stakeholders, Including
The Company And Customers. Recognizing Trends Such As Machine Learning And Big
Data Helps Marketers Anticipate New Ways To Reach Customers, Different Ways To Use
Existing Channels, And Take Advantage Of New Data Sources To Better Inform Their
Marketing Plans. An Understanding Of Consumer Behaviour Can Mean Better Business
For Companies, Better Public Policy For Governments, And A Better Life For Individuals
And Households.
