Study Notes
Consumer Behaviour Introduction
- Marketing is a social science, not rocket science
- It's complex and difficult to predict consumer behaviour
- One-to-one relationships between processes and outcomes aren't guaranteed, luck plays a role
- Marketing involves creating, communicating, delivering, and exchanging offerings of value for customers, clients, partners, and society.
- Value creation is for customers, stakeholders, and firms (good products, best possible, quality, price, brand name, marketing pieces of information).
- Online is key now, focus on immediate observable product qualities, not just brand and social influences.
- Value comes from both product engineering and marketing.
Correlation and User Ratings
- Evaluate product safety by simulating crashes with dummies.
- Data collection from various product categories
- Measurement instruments assess objective product performance.
- High positive correlation between user ratings and quality.
- Zero correlation means no relationship between ratings and quality.
- Negative correlation indicates lower quality with higher user ratings
- Correlation between star rating and performance matters, but is not always 100%. Correlation coefficients (e.g. 0.99, 0.71, 0.16) give the degree of relationship.
- If star rating difference is less than .20, there is a 50% chance the higher-ranked product is better. If the difference is less than .40, the higher-ranked product is likely better 70% of the time.
Consumer Perceptions and Experiments
- Consumer perception is influenced by factors like models and comments, especially influenced by "influencer" information.
- Wine tasting experiments: Sampling preferences vary even if the wine is the same (different order and presentation). Consumer preference correlation exists with price for some types of wine.
- Consumer willingness to pay: Willingness to pay is higher with larger ounces of product even if the contents are similar. The perception of packaging and product quality can impact price.
Social Market Experiments
- Social market A (1000 consumers): Record how much people listen to certain songs, observing how much other people listen to said songs.
- Social market B (1000 consumers): Follow the procedure described for market A.
- Ranking each song by market and comparing correlations gives a consistency measure. The market with the highest correlation (consistency) indicates which consumers rate popularity most congruently with each other.
Value for Consumers and Firms
- Consumer perspective: value = benefits for consumers
- Firm perspective: Value = consumers pay more than product cost.
- Value is a function of the marketing mix (product, promotion, price, place). Firm value = creating value for consumers.
- High-value customers are those who provide value to the firm through life-time sales, not necessarily higher spending consumers in the short term.
Egocentrism and Perspective-Taking
- Company view of product is egocentric, doesn't equal customer perspective.
- Consumers' desires and needs are different from what a company believes they want.
- Understanding customer value is crucial for success. Companies must consider and address customer needs, desires, perceptions accurately.
- Perspective taking and understanding the viewpoints of others (collaborators and consumers) are important in business.
Effectiveness of Online Advertising
- Advertising is effective differently across categories (e.g. search vs. display ads).
- Offline effects influence purchasing decisions more than expected, especially during specific times (holidays).
- Casual connections without causation, don't assume one aspect leads to another, look for other variables.
Correlation Vs. Causation
- Correlation does not equal causation, there are many third factors at play. (Example: Warm weather and ice cream sales, which are both affected by a third factor).
- Marketing success does not always determine sales success, one can be correlated but not always causative.
