Buyer behavior - decision-making process

How do customers buy?

Customers go through a five-stage decision-making process in any purchase. This is summarized in the diagram below:

This model is important for anyone making marketing decisions. It forces the marketer to consider the whole buying process rather than just the purchase decision (when it may be too late for a business to influence the choice!)

The model implies that customers pass through all stages in every purchase. However, in more routine purchases, customers often skip or reverse some of the stages.

For example, a student buying a favorite hamburger would recognize the need (hunger) and go right to the purchase decision, skipping information search and evaluation. However, the model is very useful when it comes to understanding any purchase that requires some thought and deliberation.

The buying process starts with need recognition. At this stage, the buyer recognizes a problem or need (e.g. I am hungry, I need a new TV set, I have a headache) or responds to a marketing stimulus (e.g. you pass Sony store and are attracted by a big screen showing a football match or an action movie and).

An "aroused" customer then needs to decide how much information (if any) is required. If the need is strong and there is a product or service that meets the need close to hand, then a purchase decision is likely to be made there and then. If not, then the process of information search begins.

A customer can obtain information from several sources:

• Personal sources: family, friends, neighbors etc

• Commercial sources: advertising; salespeople; retailers; dealers; packaging; point-of-sale displays

• Public sources: newspapers, radio, television, consumer organizations; specialist magazines

• Experiential sources: handling, examining, using the product

The usefulness and influence of these sources of information will vary by product and by customer. Customers' value and respect personal sources more than commercial sources (the influence of "word of mouth"). The challenge for the marketing team is to identify which information sources are most influential in their target markets.

In the evaluation stage, the customer must choose between the alternative brands, products and services.

How can the customer benefit from the information?

An important determinant of the extent of evaluation is whether the customer feels "involved" in the product. By involvement, we mean the degree of perceived relevance and personal importance that accompanies the choice.

Where a purchase is "highly involving", the customer is likely to carry out extensive evaluation.

High-involvement purchases include those involving high expenditure or personal risk - for example buying a house, a TV set or making investments. Low involvement purchases (e.g. buying a soft drink, choosing some breakfast cereals in the supermarket) have very simple evaluation processes.

Why should a marketer need to understand the customer evaluation process?

The answer lies in the kind of information that the marketing team needs to provide customers in different buying situations.

In high-involvement decisions, the marketer needs to provide a good deal of information about the positive consequences of buying. The sales force may need to stress the important attributes of the product, the advantages compared with the competition; and maybe even encourage "trial" or "sampling" of the product in the hope of securing the sale.

Post-purchase evaluation - Cognitive Dissonance

The final stage is the post-purchase evaluation of the decision. It is common for customers to experience concerns after making a purchase decision. This arises from a concept that is known as "cognitive dissonance". The customer, having bought a product, may feel that an alternative would have been preferable. In these circumstances that customer will not repurchase immediately, but is likely to switch brands next time.

To manage the post-purchase stage, it is the job of the marketing team to persuade the potential customer that the product will satisfy his or her needs. Then after having made a purchase, the customer should be encouraged that he or she has made the right decision.

Factors affecting buying decision

Possible influences on the decision process

Personal influences

Demographic

Situational

Involvement

Psychological influences

Perception

Motives

Attitudes

Personality

Social influences

Roles and family

Reference groups

Social classes

Culture and subcultures

Personal factors:

Is one that is unique to a particular person? It can influence purchasing decision

In this section we discuss three categories which are demographic, situational, and level of involvement factors.

Demographic factors:

Such as age, sex, race, ethnic, origin, income, family life-cycle, and occupation

Demographic factors have a bearing on who is involved in family decision making. For example, it's estimated that by 2010 the Middle East and North African countries. Will have the largest market for TV sets because of more new apartments built for old men who is getting married that means more opportunities to sell wide number of TV sets .

Men with age between 25 and 35 are know to have more influence in buying decision process for furniture and other equipments when they are starting furnishing their new apartments with all Necessities.

Another example is a person's age and income may affect the number and types of information sources used and the amount of time devoted to seeking information.

Demographic factors also affect to which a person uses products in a specific product category. Consumers in the 20 to 45 age group are more interested in buying new technology such as this TV set with high definition image specially those who get high income they find it easy to buy a new TV set even if the old one still in a good shape or condition .

Here Sony set plans how to attract those potential consumers in term of marketing mix focusing how to set prices and

Situational factors:

Are the external circumstances or conditions that exist when a consumer is making a purchase decision. Sometimes a consumer engages in buying decision-making as a result of unexpected situation. For example, a person may hurriedly buy a TV set to watch the world cup 2010 or owner of a coffee shop try to attract more customers by offering them watching their favorite teams in the world cup or Olympic Games just two or three days before it starts or sometimes during that occasions. Yet in other circumstances the same individual might spend many weeks shopping around for a discount or any offer available. Situational factors can influence a consumer's actions during any stage of the buying process.

The time available to make decision is a situational factor that strongly influences consumer buying decision. If there is a little time for selecting and purchasing the TV set, a person may make a quick choice and purchase a readily available brand.

Level of involvement:

Many aspects of consumer buying decisions are affected by the individual's level of involvement; it determines why he or she is motivated to seek information about this product and brand but virtually ignores others. The extensiveness of the buying decision process varies greatly with the consumer's level of involvement. The sequence of the steps in this process may also be altered. Low-involvement buyers may form an attitude about this product and evaluate its features after purchasing it rather than before. Conversely, high-involvement buyers spend much time and effort researching their purchase beforehand.

Such TV set is a product that undergoes a great deal of investigation before they are chosen.

Psychological factors influencing the buying decision process

Operating within individuals partly determine people's general behavior and thus influence their behavior as consumers.

Perception

Different people perceive the same thing at the same time in different ways. Similarly, the same individual at different times may perceive the same product in a number of ways. Perception is the process information inputs are the sensations received through sight, hearing, and touch the product.

Perception is a three-step process. Although consumers receive numerous pieces of information at once, only a few of them reach awareness. They select certain inputs and ignore many others because they do not have the ability to be conscious of every input at the same time. This phenomenon is sometimes called selective exposure because they select inputs that are to be exposed to their awareness. For example if they are concentrating reading this paragraph, they probably are not aware that car outside making noise, that the light is on, or that they are touching this book. Even though they are receiving these inputs, they ignore them until they are mentioned.

For example a person hoping to buy this TV set is likely to watch an advertisement containing TV set information. An input is likely to reach awareness if the information helps satisfy current needs. If the intensity of an input changes significantly, the input is more likely to reach awareness. When a store manager reduces a price slightly, they may not notice because the change is not significant, but if the manager cuts the price in half, they are much more likely to recognize the reduction.

Motives

Is an internal energizing force that directs activities towards satisfying a need or achieving a goal. Motivation is the set of mechanisms for controlling movement toward goals. A buyer's action at any time is affected by a set of motives rather than by just one. At a single point in time, some motives in the set have priority, but the priorities of motives vary from one time to another. For example, a person's motives for having this TV set when not having a TV set rather than if having an old TV set. Motivation also affects the direction and intensity of behavior. Individuals must choose which goals to pursue at a particular time.

A buyer may use a particular shop because of such patronage motives as price, service, location, honesty, product variety, or friendliness of salespeople.

That's why Sony marketers should try to determine why regular customers patronize a store and then emphasis these characteristics in the store's marketing mix.

The marketing department should do researching by asking group of people for example what motivates them, why they keep buying that brand even if they know that brand is not as good quality as Sony. Keep researching what motivates them by other brands and what are motives of other brands.

Ability and knowledge

Individuals vary in their ability, their competence and efficiency in performing tasks. One ability of inters to marketers is an individual's capacity to learn. Learning refers to changes in a person's behavior caused by information and experience. The consequence of behavior strongly influences the learning process. Behavior that results in satisfying consequences tends to be repeated. For example, when a consumer buys a TV set and likes it, he or she is more likely to advise friends or relatives to buy the same TV set with the same brand he/she bought. In fact, the individual will probably continue to purchase that brand until it longer provides satisfaction. But when the affects of the behavior are no longer satisfying, the person will switch to a different brand.

This is very important for marketers in SONY Company to keep searching for reasons that makes individuals satisfied with this product related to the marketing mix.

Buyers when making purchasing decisions, have to process information. Individuals have differing abilities in this regard. For example, when purchasing this TV set , a well-educated potential buyer who has experience with technology and good brands available in the market may be able to read, comprehend, and synthesis the considerable quantities of information in technical brochures for various competing brands. On the other hand, another buyer with more limited abilities may be incapable of performing this task and will have to rely on information obtained from advertisements or from a sales representative of a particular brand.

Here SONY marketers should offer all information's that attract different levels of people, and choose smart advertisements that introduce the product, and its benefits.

Inexperienced buyers use different types of information from more experienced shoppers who are familiar with the product and purchase situation. Inexperienced buyers use price as an indicator of quality more frequently than buyers who have some knowledge of a particular product category.

So sources of information are different, while buyers with expertise are more confidence to compare and find direct information related to the product, consumers who lack expertise may seek the advice of others making a purchase or take a long a friend.

Marketers should be aware of what general consumer back ground of the company and its products, while some consumers think SONY is quite expensive others believe that SONY has the best quality and so on, here SONY have to create the best tools of providing positive information and knowledge for those

Attitude

Refers to knowledge and positive or negative feelings about the product.

The acts towards which consumers have attitudes may be tangible or intangible, living or non-living.

An individual learns attitudes through experience and interaction with other people. Just as attitudes are learned, they can be also changed.

An individual's attitudes remain generally stable and do not change from moment to moment. Likewise, at any one time, a person's attitudes do not all have equal impact; some are stronger than others.

Consumer attitudes towards a firm and its products greatly influence the success or failure of the firm's marketing strategy. When consumers have strong negative attitudes towards one or more aspects of a firm's marketing practices, they may not only stop using the firm's product but also urge their relatives and friends to do likewise. For example, one of SONY stores in NORTH AFRICA is was not trusted by wide range of customers because of unfair prices related to other branches in the MIDDEL EAST countries, consumers in those countries does not know that was not SONY company, so the image of SONY was affected in that area, and sales started to flow down because of that big mistake by the company who was representing SONY company in NORTH AFRICA.

Marketers in SONY should always measure consumer's attitudes towards prices, package design, the brand name, advertisements, salespeople, services after sale, stores locations, features of the product, and also social responsibility activities.

Several methods can help gauge these attitudes. One of the simplest ways is to question people directly. Asking about the consumer satisfaction about the TV set, are they satisfied with quality and the price, knowing the feedback of consumers, and keep going determining the positive and negative points , to check the performance of all steps involved while marketing the product, trying to attract more consumers by studying their attitudes.

Personality

Includes all the internal traits and behaviors that make a person unique. Each person's unique personality arises from both heredity and personal experience. Personalities are typically describes as having one or more characteristics, such as compulsiveness, ambitiousness, gregariousness, dogmatism, authoritarianism, introversion, extroversion, aggressiveness, competitiveness.

Here should attempt to find relationships among such characteristics and buying behavior. Even though a few links between several personality characteristics and buyer behavior have been determined, the results of many studies have been inconclusive. Some researchers see the apparently weak association between personality and buying behavior as due to unreliable measures rather than a lack of relationship. A number of marketers are convinced that a consumer's personality does influence the types and brands of products purchased. For example the type TV set brand that a person buys may reflect one or more personality characteristics.

At times, SONY aim advertising campaigns at general types of personalities. In doing so, they use positively valued personality characteristics, such as gregariousness, independence, or competitiveness. Most products promoted this way.

Social factors influencing the buying decision process

The forces that other people exert on buying behavior.

Roles and family influences

Every person occupies position within groups, organizations, and institutions. Associated with each position is a role. A set of actions and activities that a person in a particular position is supposed to perform, based on the expectations of both the individual and surrounding persons. Because people occupy numerous positions, they also have many roles. For example, a man may perform the roles of son, wife, father, employee or employer, civic organization member, and student in an evening class. Thus are several sets of expectations placed on each person's behavior.

An individual's roles influence both general behavior and buying behavior. The demands of a person's role may be inconsistent and confusing. To illustrate, assume that the man mentioned above is thinking about buying this TV set. While he wants this TV set to enjoy watching world news or football games, his children want to watch cartoons or connect the screen to play station and play games. His wife wants him to delay the TV set purchase until next month. A colleague at work insists that he should buy a particular brand, known for high quality. Thus an individual's buying behavior is partially affected by input and opinions of family and friends.

Family roles related directly to purchase decisions. The male head of household is likely to be involved heavily in the purchase of this product. Deciding if it's the right time to purchase or not. Although female roles have changed, women still make buying decisions related to many household items. Husbands and wives participate jointly in the purchase of products, especially durable goods such this TV set. Some young men aged 25 to 35 who is getting married in summer season; their brand loyalty can be quite changeable.

In this case marketers in SONY frequently promote for such product during holidays to catch this hard to reach group at time when they are more receptive to a promotional message.

When two or more family members participate in a purchase, their roles may dictate each is responsible for performing certain tasks: initiating the idea, gathering information, deciding whether to buy this TV set, or selecting another brand.

That's why marketers need to be aware of how roles affect buying behavior. To develop a marketing mix that precisely meets the needs of the target market, and they must know not only who does the actual buying, but also what other roles influence the purchase. Because sex roles are changing so rapidly, they must ensure that information is current and accurate.

Reference groups

A group becomes a reference group when an individual identifies with it so much that he or she takes on many of the values, attitudes, or behavior of group members. The person who views a group as a reference group may or may not know the actual size of the group. Most people have several reference groups, such as families, friends, religious, civic, and professional organizations.

A group can be negative reference group for an individual. Someone may have been a part of a specific group at one time but later rejected its values and members. One can also specifically take action to avoid a particular group.

A reference group may serve as a point of comparison and a source of information for an individual. A customer's behavior may change to be more in line with the actions and beliefs of a group member. For example, a person might stop buying one brand of TV set and switch to SONY on the advice of members of the reference group. Generally, the more conspicuous the product, the more likely it is that the brand decision will be reference group.

This days reference groups plays a big role affecting the buying decision, specially in advertising and the way the company choose to promote for the product, it was a very successful experience when SONY do a smart advertisement for it's products specially TV screens, a lot of consumers enjoyed watching the Brazilian football player RECARDO KAKA doing the advertisement, he attracted a lot of customers, even who don't watch football matches.

Social classes

Within all societies, people rank others into higher or lower positions of respect.

This ranking results in social classes. A social class is an open group of individuals who have similar social rank. A class referred to as "open" because people can move into and out of it. The criteria for grouping people into classes vary from one society to another. In western countries, many factors are taken into account, including occupation, education, income, wealth, race, ethnic group, and possession. In some countries like Arabic countries, wealth and income are more important than education and occupation in determining social classes.

A person is ranking someone does not necessarily apply all of society's criteria. The number and the importance of the factors chosen depend on the characteristics of the individual being ranked and the values of the person who is doing the ranking.

Social class influence many aspects. For example, it affects childhood training, choice of religion, selection of occupation, and how people spend their time. Because social class has a bearing on so many aspects of a person's life, it also affect buying decisions, for example, upper-class seem to prefer luxury automobiles such as the BMW and MERCEDES-BENZ, which symbolize their status, income, and financial comfort.

Thos upper-class would buy TV set with the latest technologies available which is full HD screens and 3D with 60ince size with all the accessories, they like to make it like a home cinema they might spend large amount of money to buy such a TV set.

Culture and subculture

Is everything in surroundings that is made by human beings. It consists of tangible items, and intangible concepts, such as education, welfare, and laws. Culture also includes the values and wide range of behaviors that are acceptable within a specific society. Are learned and passed on from one generation to the next.

Culture influences buying behavior because it permeates daily lives. It determines what people wear, eat, where to live and travel. It also influences how people buy and use products and the satisfaction gained from them.

While some countries spend a lot of time watching TV , others might spend much time surfing the internet, so culture determines how TV purchased and used, it in turn affects all the marketing mix, promotion, distribution, and pricing of the product.

Marketing mix

The Market Mix (often referred to as the 4-Ps)

Refers to the unique blend of marketing

Elements designed to meet the needs of the

Organization's target market. The Marketing

Mix consists of the organization's...

• Product

• Price

• Promotion

• Distribution (Place)

Understanding how to position the market offering

Putting the right product in the right place, at the right price, at the right time.

We already have created a TV set that is a particularly group of customer's wants, now we put it on sale in a place that those same customers visit regularly, and price it at a level which matches the value they feel they get out of it; and do all that at a time they want to buy.

There's a lot of truth in this idea. However, a lot of hard work needs to go into finding out what customers want, and identifying where they do their shopping. Then we need to figure out how to produce the item at a price that represents value to them, and get it all to come together at the critical time.

The marketing mix is a good place to start when we are thinking through our plans for this TV set, and it helps avoid any kind of mistakes.

The marketing mix and the 4 Ps of marketing are often used as synonyms for each other. In fact, they are not necessarily the same thing.

"Marketing mix" is a general phrase used to describe the different kinds of choices organizations have to make in the whole process of bringing a product or service to market. The 4 Ps is one way. A good way to understand the 4 Ps is by the questions that we need to ask to define marketing mix. Here are some questions that will help you understand and define each of the four elements:

Product

What does the customer want from the product/service? What needs does it satisfy?

What features does it have to meet these needs?

Are there any features we've missed out?

Are we including costly features that the customer won't actually use?

How and where will the customer use it?

What does it look like? How will customers experience it?

What size(s), color(s), and so on, should it be?

What is it to be called?

How is it branded?

How is it differentiated versus your competitors?

What is the most it can cost to provide, and still be sold sufficiently profitably? (See also Price, below).

Place

Where do buyers look for this product?

If they look in a store, what kind? A specialist boutique or in a supermarket, or both? Or online? Or direct, via a catalogue?

How can you access the right distribution channels?

Do you need to use a sales force? Or attend trade fairs? Or make online submissions? Or send samples to catalogue companies?

What does competitors do, and how can we learn from that and/or differentiate?

Price

What is the value of the product to the buyer?

Are there established price points for the product in this area?

Is the customer price sensitive? Will a small decrease in price gain extra market share? Or will a small increase be indiscernible, and so gain extra profit margin?

What discounts should be offered to trade customers, or to other specific segments of your market?

How will the price compare competitors?

Promotion

Where and when can we get across marketing messages to target market?

Will we reach audience by advertising in the press, or on TV, or radio, or on billboards? By using direct marketing mail shot? On the Internet?

When is the best time to promote? Is there seasonality in the market? Are there any wider environmental issues that suggest or dictate the timing of market launch, or the timing of subsequent promotions?

How do competitors do their promotions? And how does that influence your choice of promotional activity?

The 4Ps model is just one of many marketing mix lists that have been developed over the years. And, whilst the questions listed above are the key, they are just a subset of the detailed probing that may be required to optimize marketing mix.

Amongst the other marketing mix models have been developed over the years is Boom and Banter's 7Ps, sometimes called the extended marketing mix, which include the first 4 Ps, plus people, processes and physical layout decisions.

Another marketing mix approach is Lautenberg's 4Cs, which presents the elements of the marketing mix from the buyer's, rather than the seller's, perspective. It is made up of Customer needs and wants (the equivalent of product), Cost (price), Convenience (place) and Communication (promotion). In this article, we focus on the 4Ps model as it is the well-recognized, and contains the core elements of a good marketing mix.

Using the 4Ps Marketing Mix Model

The marketing mix model can be used for helping to decide how to take a new offer to market. It can also be used to test existing marketing strategy. Whether y considering a new or existing offer, the steps below to define and improve marketing mix.

Start by identifying the product o that we want to analyze.

Go through and answers the 4Ps questions - as defined in detail above.

Try asking "why" and "what if" questions too, to challenge the offer. For example, ask why your target audience needs a particular feature. What if we drop price by 5%? What if we offer more colors? Why sell through wholesalers rather than direct channels? What if we improve TV program rather than rely on TV advertising?

when have a well-defined marketing mix, try "testing" the overall offer from the customer's perspective, by asking customer focused questions:

Does it meet their needs? (product)

Will they find it where they shop? (place)

Will they consider it's priced favorably? (price)

And will the marketing communications reach them? (promotion)

Keep on asking questions and making changes to the mix until we are satisfied that we have optimized marketing mix; given the information and facts and figures we have available.

Review you mix regularly, as some elements will need to change as the product, and its market, grow, mature and adapt in an ever-changing competitive environment.

More implementing of marketing mix

Carry out marketing of the important things and it needs to blend between experience and advanced studies in marketing and application of basic theories in this area

Perhaps the marketing mix is one of the four most important things that should be taken into account

In terms of offering the right product to the needs of consumers which they put at a competitive price and suitable for the ability of customers to purchase and select the perfect place to sell it so that it is easy accessible by consumers and the use of the best ways to promote this product

Perhaps the Sony Corporation of the best companies that follow the successful policies in the marketing of their products

It is the most important conditions that must be taken into account to complete the process of the marketing mix that the product be a measure of quality in terms of use, appearance and price is fair and non-exaggerated and to beware of the product launch at a non-competitor was be one of the competitors put the same product at a lower price, as well as production quantities meet market needs and cost are reasonable

Should introduce the product in the right place and right time

Make sure the arrival of the product to the place of sale and display attracts more customers and to provide adequate information about the product

The promotion process should be effective and feasible because the successful promotion process shall help to achieve the product knowledge and sales, which covers the cost of achieving a satisfactory profit

Here we find that a company like Sony continuously develop their products as we will see this TV set when you use high-quality

This product is new in itself in terms of technique used when the deity technical clarity and purity is Blue-ray has been put forward by the company through its agents around the world at a competitive price in its kind, after conducting the necessary studies on the perceptions of customers about the product and competing products as well as manufacturing costs and also promoted

And use the best channels to market this product, for example shopping malls in major cities and capitals months in each country visited, where a large number of customers

An important point which makes marketers worry about it

Product appearance and responsive to market needs

Product functionality and here we must meet the product needs of customers has also been identified through market research

And here we return to the issue of price and how to gain new customers are ignorant of this brand or have a background does not make them make the decision to select this product followers of methods and plans to increase sales is important but not limited to sufficiency customer Permanent Customers permanent important for the company, but the process of attracting new customers is not an easy

Because it requires them to be convinced by eliminating other brand, for example, in some cases even the same product before the two brands in quality with the convergence in the price here comes the role of promotion and advertising offers and after-sales services that make the customer's favor any of the trademarks that this were not a certain class of customers have a loyalty to a particular brand

Determine the value of the product are always coupled with the look of the consumer of the product and the extent of its evaluation of this product and often set up research on consumer opinions about the product in terms of price and how to pay the amount paid is worth it or not

The companies pursue policies fabricated in the selection of product pricing depending on time and internal and external conditions

Also here we are exposed to the venue issue in terms of storage and display places or points of retail

And the storage process is an important process so that the goods are close to places of sale

Must feel the customer or client always said that in three places to buy this appropriate product at the right time

Choice of the location must be in proportion to the need of the customer and the quality of the product also may be pointless to sell this Dater metal in a remote place for business gatherings and crowded with customers

Or by offering an expensive product in a popular market

The distribution process must be carried out smoothly and to provide the quantities required in the appropriate places to meet the needs of customers and cover the demand for the product

The distribution vary from retail or wholesale, and corporate arrogance that represent the company at the regional level, and here is always the company to develop plans appropriate to each area separately.

Conclusion

At the end of this report summarize several important points

The decision to buy television passed through several stages of the need to search the complete in all respects relating to the customer

The more information available about the behavior of the customer in the process of buying minutes more opportunities to satisfy the needs of the consumer

The importance of going through all stages of the procurement and consumer behavior to make purchase decision

The importance of applying the four principles of the marketing mix

In order to realize the concept of marketing, of satisfying the consumer and the company's objectives of achieving a high rate of sales and cover all costs and access to an excellent rate of profitability, we have to integrate all the efforts made as a process study of consumer behavior and the decision to purchase and convert all of the above study to the reality of concrete because the positive results identified by the company

Is not considered to reach this stage achievement enough, but the devil is in the continuity of studies and development in order to find appropriate solutions in line with changing market environment

This comes down development processes and to develop operational plans to maintain the company's growth and continue to provide the best products that compete with all the other companies and gain customer loyalty and satisfaction
