Introduction
This paper presents a dynamic model on the consumer behaviour on the real world marketing issue. It will further discuss the marketing and industrial experiences encountered daily in everyday business life, in addition is the Consumer behavioural issues and consumer analysis or recommendations.
Research studies has argued that industries or companies experience lots of issues in awe to the logistics of their daily routine, giving them the knowledge that can be used to anticipate incoming situations with the way of tackling problems. However, with the familiarity and repeated external occurrences in the marketing scope of an industry there are many implementations carried out in solving such problems without complexity.
In any industry if the external occurrences are novel, the industrialist structural understanding will lack concrete account of the situation, thereby using old attitude in solving current occurrences. In so doing, there is the tendency of disaster or failure since the result does not get closer to the consumers expectation, hence they device new approach of solving recent occurrence by using the trial and error process in addition to experimentation. The process of surrogating will therefore be tested in the market for the consumers appraisal, and once it works then it will be settled on. Although industries do not actively become accustomed to the consumer behaviour or external environment, but by the use of their imagination, they create an environment to which they will become accustomed by means of learning, experimentation and trial an error. Given that consumers have different tastes and expectation in the rapidly changing world, the industries visualization and protrusions are again subject to the consumer or market tests.
What is consumer behaviour?
Consumer behaviour is the procedure or practice whereby a group of people or an individual make a selection of good or product, or the procurement and the utilization or disposition of goods or products, services, opinion or belief and experiences for the satisfaction of ones wants and cravings (Sandhusen 217).
Consumer behaviour can also be said to be the study of when an individual or group of people buy a product , their reasons or enthusiasm toward buying of the products, the manner or the way or the extent at which they bought the product , and the location or place where they buy or do not buy their products. In other words there is variety of influence that affects an individual or people in decision or choice making; hence this policy making can be either internal or external.
There is variation in policy making for consumers in that they may buy a product, either use it or dispose it on the long run, because of this they may be thought of as major dramatis personae who require different products aid in their basic needs.
Marketing problems and consumer behaviour issues:
The key aspect of consumer behaviour is the marketing segmentation. Consumers can be grouped into different sections or part, including product usage, demographics and psychological and lifestyle segments. In any industry the market research is vital because it ensures that the manufacturer produces the customers actual want or demand and not their imagination or conjecture on the consumers want or need. Whenever, an industry understands the customers needs, it helps in improving their marketing strategies. Some of the issues of the consumer are:
-
The industry or company must understand the reaction (thinking, feeling, reasons of any action) of the consumer and the selection of diverse options like brand or products.
-
The consumers influence in relation to environment.
-
Consumers behaviour while making decision or shopping for a product.
-
Inadequate knowledge or information of a product control decision-making and marketing result (Perners, The Psychology of Marketing ).
Consumer behaviour is vital if studied from different perspective and the problem of marketing is the basic point of discussion. The marketing problem is important because it help the company in the understanding and prediction of the consumers need or demand for certain products in addition to the familiarity and preference in the selection of brands. It is also important to give adequate and genuine information to the consumers to avoid the issue of deception and lastly the consumer must expand in their behaviour in making decision when shopping for products (Chien and Moutinho 35).
Promising developmental change of any company or industry for instance the modern emphasis on the relationship of marketing and the practice of database marketing helps the Marketers with the familiarization of the wants and needs of different consumers. The importance of this is that people are authorized in building their consumer space by assessment of different information about a product before buying. The consumer will also be able to contact companies with the help of database through the internet instead of inactive marketing communications.
With the introduction of modern communication technology like the web there has been transformation in the way consumers interact with companies.
The recent technology like the E-commerce allows the consumer in the location of products that are not seen distinctly from different part of the world, thereby helping consumers to share about a product and the recommendation of such products. Although, there is the possibility of problems which accompanies such benefits like: there is little or no privacy in such interactions and the deterioration of customary communal interaction.
Marketing has impacted the consumers massively in that the consumer behaviour is relevant to the perceptive of the public policy issues and the dynamics of popular culture.
In addition to this theres a saying in public relations that any publicity is good publicity. If we are to view this critically from the business or marketing perspective one will admit that it is better than something that receives bad publicity than no publicity at all because when the value of manufactured goods is known before consumption or distribution there is a high tendency in the shaping of the demand and the prevalence of the publicized product may be taken as presumptive proof that they affect consumers demand, but the fundamental inquiry about the nature of information being transmitted remains.
In line with this once a product is well publicized and the consumers have good and adequate information on such product there is the tendency of market growth or development of the product, the consumers or people will have adequate information of such product irrespective of how, where, when the product is publicised. A good example of a company that benefited from not just good publicity but also genuine and reliable information to customers is the Toyota motors Plc, which made an extra 100 million dollars from stalling, but with the aid of good publicity they achieved a massive profit from the novel market.
The marketing performance put forth a colossal impact on group people or an individual in that consumer behaviour is relevant to our mutual understanding of public policy issues and the dynamics of well-liked culture. However, the broadened area of consumer behaviour is interdisciplinary; it is made up of an organised study from many broads, sharing an interest on how people work together with the open market. These disciplines can be classified by the level to which their centre of attention is the individual consumer (micro consumer) and the group of people or generously proportioned society (macro consumers).
There are many points of view on the consumer behaviour, but researchers approximately divided it into two approaches that are the positivist and interpretive approach. The positivist point of view, which at present dominates the field of consumer behaviour, lays emphasis on the objectivity of science and the consumer as a reasonable and sensible decision maker. While, the interpretive point of view is in contrast to that of the positivist, in that it emphasises on the importance of the subjective meaning of the consumers individual experience, hence, it suggest that whichever behaviour a consumer performs is subject to diverse interpretations to a certain extent than just a single explanation to it.
In conclusion, to this I think that marketers do not have the ability of controlling the consumers need through the process of efficient marketing methods. However, the marketers can successfully market products by taking the process of demographics and psychographics into consideration, while this will profitably market their products to the intended consumers hence increase in the demand or need.
