What is consumer behaviour?
Consumer behaviour is the behaviour that consumers
display in searching for, purchasing, using, evaluating and
disposing of the products and services that they expect will
satisfy their needs (Schiffman et al., 2014, p. 4).
The study of consumer behaviour includes:
- how consumers think - what they buy
- why they buy it - how often they buy it
- how often they use it - how they dispose of it.

When acting as consumers, individuals have one
goal in mind:
To obtain goods and services that meet their needs
and wants.
This requires solutions to problems, and the
process is often complex.

Text line
Consumer roles: Buyers, payers and users
The marketplace activities of individuals entail three
functions:
1. the consumer (user) - who consumes or uses the
product
2. the buyer - who undertakes activities to procure or
obtain the product
3. the payer - who provides the money (or other value)
to obtain the product.

Why Study Consumer Behaviour?
By studying consumer behaviour we try to
understand & gain insight into:
Consumer decision making processes
What we buy, how we buy, and why we buy
Enables us to become better consumers and
marketers
We try to gain a better understanding of consumer
related behaviour and why individuals act in
consumer related ways.

Societal marketing concept
A restructured definition of the marketing concept:
Seeks to fulfil the needs of the target audience in ways that
improve society as a whole, while also fulfilling the objectives of
the organisation.
Marketers should adhere to principles of social responsibility in
the marketing of their goods and services and satisfy the needs
and wants of their target markets in ways that preserve and
enhance the well-being of consumers and society.

What is a decision?
A decision is the selection of an action from two or
more alternative choices.
> Note: This includes the decision of whether or
not to make the purchase, and which brand to
purchase.
A forced choice (no alternatives) is known as
Hobson’s choice: and are therefore forced to make
a particular purchase.

models
Text line
Consumer Decision Making Models
Economic (rational) Model
Consumer makes economically rational decisions → aware of all
alternatives → can evaluate pros and cons → make best
decision.
Unrealistic because of consumer limited skill sets and pre-existing
habits and values.
Passive Model
Consumer is depicted as being easily persuaded by marketing
techniques → conceptualised as submissive.
Ignores scenarios where consumers are equal / dominant within
the buying situation.
Text line
Consumer Decision Making Models (cont.)
Cognitive (problem-solving) Model
Consumer depicted as problem solver → receptive / seeking products or
services that fulfill their needs.
Focus is on how consumers seek + evaluate information.
Does not predict economically rational decisions.
Emotional Model
Focus is on the emotional issues that influence purchase decisions (e.g. fear,
hope, fantasy, joy etc.).
Consumer spends less time on eliciting information and evaluation.
Emphasis is on current mood and feelings (e.g. self-rewards),
but this does not mean the decision is irrational .

Process
Need recognition Pre-purchase search
Evaluation of

Process is concerned with how consumers make decisions.
It has three steps and is influenced by the psychological
field.
The psychological field has two key concepts: perceived risk
and the evoked set.
Engel, Kollat and Blackwell (1978)
Text line
1. Need recognition: actual versus desired state model
Text line
2. Pre-purchase (Information) Search
Consumers rely on past experiences (memory) as an internal
source of information.
If this is insufficient then consumers undertake an external
search for information.
Extent of external search determined by:
> level of product knowledge
> perceived risk
> perceived impact information will have on quality of
decision
> available time
> ease of obtaining information.

Types of perceived risks
Functional risk
Product will not work as
well as expected (or meet
the need)
Physical risk
Product may not be safe
(for self or family)
Financial risk
Product will not be worth
its cost
Social risk
Possible social
embarrassment as a
result of the purchase
Psychological risk
Risk a poor product
choice will impact on
consumer’s self-esteem
Time risk
Amount of time spent in
product search will be
wasted if product does not
perform as expected

3.Evaluation of alternatives
Consumers rely on two types of information:
1. their evoked set – list of brands or stores
from which they will make their selection
2. the criteria they use to evaluate each
brand.
Evoked set also called the consideration set.
The evoked set is a small number of brands.
The criteria used to evaluate brands is usually
based on important product attributes.
Consideration set - Gumtree
Text line
The evoked set as a subset of all brands in a product class
Text line
Consumer decision rules
• Consumer evaluates brands in terms of each
attribute and computes a summated score
for each brand
• Allows a positive evaluation on one attribute
to balance out a negative evaluation on
another attribute
Compensatory decision rules
• Does not allow consumers to balance
positive evaluations on one attribute against
a negative evaluation on another attribute
• Products with a negative evaluation on key
attributes are eliminated from further
consideration
Non-compensatory decision rules

4. Purchase behaviour
1.Trial purchases:
> first-time purchase of a product, usually designed to
evaluate the brand.
2.Repeat purchases:
> consumer has found the product satisfactory and
repurchases.
3.Long-term commitment purchases:
> purchase of durable goods (e.g. fridge, stove) where a trial
purchase is not possible.

Relationship marketing (cont.)
Many firms have relationship marketing programs designed
to encourage loyalty.
Programs create ongoing communication with customers.
Programs simulate a sense of belonging.
Real relationship programs go beyond simple database
marketing – needs to be the development of a two-way
valued relationship.

Consumer Involvement
Involvement:
> A person’s perceived relevance of the object based on their
inherent needs, values and interests.
– Object: a good, service, advertisement or purchase
situation.
Levels of Involvement—from Inertia to Passion:
> Type of information processing depends on the consumer’s
level of involvement.
– Simple processing: only the basic features of the
message are considered.
– Elaboration: incoming information is linked to pre-existing
knowledge.
Text line
Involvement Theory: Consumers engage in a
range of information processing activity from
extensive to limited problem solving, depending on
the relevance of the purchase.

Involvement
Low Involvement
Purchases of minimal personal relevance
Awareness of need → purchase of item
High Involvement
Purchases of high personal relevance
Awareness → evaluation → purchase → adoption/ rejection
Text line
Different levels of involvement
Different levels of involvement occur
with different products.
Involvement can also differ at
different stages of the purchase
process.
Consumer involvement is considered
a causal (motivating) factor that
drives attitudes and decision
making.
Is considered to be individual specific
– the consumer determines the
level of involvement the product
has with them.
Text line
Framework for predicting level of involvement
Text line
Consumer responses
Three theories illustrate the concepts of problem solving for
high and low-involvement consumers:
1. central and peripheral routes to persuasion theory
(Elaboration Likelihood Model – ELM)
2. social judgement theory
3. informational/transformational theory.
Text line
Central and peripheral routes to persuasion theory
• More effective for high involvement
purchases
• Consumer more likely to evaluate
information and products carefully when
the product is more relevant to them
• Focus on the attributes of the product
Central route to
persuasion
• More effective for low involvement
purchases
• Consumer more likely to engage in
limited information search and evaluation
when purchase is less important to them
• Focus on the presentation of message
Peripheral route to
persuasion
Text line

Cues
Milk – Product involvement
Text line
Social judgement theory
Posits our processing of information about an issue is
determined by our involvement with the issue
Highly involved individuals will interpret a message
congruent with their beliefs as more positive
(assimilation effect). And one that is not congruent as
more negative (contrast effect)
Uninvolved individuals will be more receptive to arguments
for and against
Text line
Informational theory
Informational motivation is seen as
negative motivation consisting of:
1. Problem removal
2. Problem avoidance
3. Incomplete satisfaction
4. Mixed
approach/avoidance
5. Normal depletion (i.e.
‘out of stock’)
Transformational theory
Transformational motivation is seen
as positive motivation consisting
of:
1. Sensory gratification
2. Intellectual stimulation
3. Social approval
