Internal Stimuli

Pareto Principle
- Approximately 20% of customers typically generate 80% of demand, according to the Pareto Principle
Information Search
- An internal information search involves recalling stored information from memory (e.g., past experiences, brand awareness)
- Non-marketing-controlled information sources include word of mouth, online reviews, and social media
Evaluation of Alternatives
