The purpose of segmentation is to determine differences among buyers which may be consequential in choosing away then or marketing to them”.

KEY CONSUMER BELIEFS 

 



If a product is made by a company I trust I will buy it even if it is slightly more expensive. I buy based on quality not on price. I am willing to pay more for the product that is environmentally safe. I always check the ingredients and nutritional contents of food products before I buy them.









I buy the brand I grew up with the one my mother used. I would pay extra for a product that is consistent with the image I want to convey I am influenced by what’s hot and what’s not. I prefer to buy the things by friends and my neighbors would approve of.

FIRM ORIENTED DEFINITION PRODUCT ORIENTED DEFINITION MARKET ORIENTED DEFINITION CONSUMER ORIENTED DEFINITION FACTORS INFLUENSING THE RATE OF DIFFUSION

FIRM ORIENTED DEFINITIONS A firm – oriented approach treats the newness of a product from the perspective of the company producing or marketing it. When the product is new to the company, it is considered new. This definition ignores whether or not the product is actually new to the market place.

PRODUCT ORIENTED DEFINITION In contrast to firm oriented definitions, a product- oriented approach focuses on the features inherent in the product itself and on the effects these features are likely to have on consumers established usage patterns.

TYPES OF PRODUCT INNOVATION  



CONTINUOUS INNOVATION DYNAMICALLY CONTINOUS INNOVATION DISCONTINUOUS INNOVATIONS

MARKET ORIENTED DEFINITIONS It judges the newness of a product in terms of exposures Two definitions  A product is considered new if it has been purchased by a relatively small (fixed) percentage of potential market.  A product is considered new if it has been on the market for a relatively short (specified) period of time.

CONSUMER ORIENTED DEFINITION

In this context, a new product is any product that a potential consumer judges to be new. Newness is based on the consumers perception of the product, rather than on physical features or market realities.

FACTORS INFLUENCING THE RATE OF DIFFUSION Diffusion researchers have identified six products characteristics that seem to influence consumer acceptance of new products:     

CONSUMER DECISION MAKING MODEL

MEANING A process by which a person is required to make a choice from various alternative options is referred to as decision- making. Providing consumers with other alternative is a good business strategy and can also result in substantial increase in sales. While for the consumer, he or she will be pleased when able to choose and decide on the best from the alternatives available.

LEVELS OF CONSUMER DECISION MAKING SPECIFIC LEVELS OF CONSUMER DECISION MAKING 1. 2. 3. 4.

EXTENSIVE PROBLEM SOLVING LIMITED PROBLEM SOLVING ROUTINIZED RESPONSE BEHAVIOR VARIETY SEEKING

Extensive problem solving The consumer needs a great deal of information to establish a set of criteria on which to judge specific brands and a correspondingly large amount of information concerning each of the brands to be considered.

The marketer has to ensure two tasks 1.

2.

The marketer must continue to provide satisfaction to the existing customers by maintaining quality, service and value. He must try to attract new customers by making use of sales promotion techniques like point of purchase displays, off-price offers, etc., and also introduce new features to the products.

LIMITED PROBLEM SOLVING Consumers already have established the basic criteria for evaluating the product category and the various brands in the category. Their search for additional information is more like “fine – tuning”, they must gather additional brand information to discriminate among the various brands.

ROUTINIZED RESPONSE BEHAVIOUR Consumers have some experience with the product category and a wellestablished set of criteria with which to evaluate the brands they are considering. They may search for the small amount of additional information; they simply review what they already know.

VARIETY SEEKING Some buying situation are characterized by low involvement but significant brand differences, here consumers often do a brand switching.
