Konsumenters köpbeteende : hur handlar kvinnor? / Consumer purchasing behavior -how do women shop?ANDERSSON, JULIA, NORMAN, EMELIE January 2010 (has links)
Syftet med detta arbete är att ta reda på hur konsumenter handlar konfektion och hur butiker kan påverka kunden till köp i butik. Metoden bygger på sökande av information genom litteratur, Internet, intervjuer och en enkätundersökning. Avgränsningen kring konsumentundersökningen är att endast studera kvinnor i åldrarna 20-60 år. Enkäten skickas endast ut via mail, kundklubb och Facebook för att spara tid.Arbetet bygger på tre huvuddelar: Köpbeteende, Marknadsföring och Butikskommunikation.Teorin består av relevant fakta från olika litterära verk samt Internetsidor. Teorin beskriver vad som påverkar en kund när hon handlar. Det är bland annat humör, tidpunkt, marknadsföring, butikskommunikation, service och atmosfär i butiken.Den empiriska delen är grundad på två intervjuer med personer med stor erfarenhet från konfektionsbranschen samt en enkätundersökning om kvinnors köpbeteende i åldrarna 20-60 år och hur de anser sig handla i butik. Frågorna som ställts handlar mycket om vilka faktorer butiker arbetar med för att skapa en säljfrämjande miljö. Resultaten av de båda intervjuerna stämmer väl överens med varandra.Av enkätsvaren kan inget specifikt mönster inom köpbeteende urskiljas. Däremot visar den på gemensamma drag och samband mellan vissa frågor. Utifrån svaren har det också gjorts tre olika exempelkunder av de respondenter som svarat. De olika exempelkunderna kallas för: Karriärkvinnan, Småbarnsmamman och Studenten. Enkäten har vissa brister vilket kan ha påverkat utfallet. En mer genomarbetad enkät hade varit att föredra. Resultaten från intervjuerna och enkäten tyder på att det finns ett samband med hur butiker bygger upp en bra butik och vad kvinnor påverkas av och förväntar sig av en bra butik. Jämförelsen mellan teorin och empirin visar att det finns gemensamma drag om hur konsumenter handlar i butik och hur butiker kan arbeta med olika faktorer som ljus, färg, doft, musik, skyltning, hängning och butikslayout för att skapa en säljfrämjande miljö. / <p>The purpose of this work is to find out how consumers buy clothing and how stores can influence customers to buy in the store.

Based on the responses it has also been made three different example customers based on responded to the survey. The example customers could be called: The career woman, the mother and the student. A more thorough survey would have been preferable. The results from the interviews and the survey suggests that there is a connection with how a stores built up a good shop and what women are affected by and can expect from a good shop. The comparison between theory and empirical data show that there are common features on how consumers act in store and how stores can work with various factors such as light, color, scent, music, signs, hanging and store layout to create a promotional environment.</p><p>Program: Butikschefsutbildningen</p>

Customer Lifetime Value: Investigating the relationships among the key determinants; Commitment, Loyalty and Purchase BehaviorMarshall, Norman Wolsey 22 September 2010 (has links)
This study examined the customer asset management and the relationship between various constructs and firm characteristics on customer lifetime value(CLV).The relationship between marketing actions such as loyalty programs and the level of commitment and specifically the type of commitment and the type of loyalty that may be influenced by such a program were investigated.The main focus of the study was on the relationship between commitment and loyalty.Additional investigations were done on the impact that this may have on customer lifetime value.In terms of commitment,many researchers regard this as an important antecedent to customer retention but there have been conflicting or ambiguous empirical findings from various studies.In terms of loyalty ,many studies have similarly found that this concept is necessary for retention as well.This study examined the effects of the two dimensions of commitment on the two dimensions of loyalty.A survey was administered and a sample of 152 informants was analyzed using SEM with PLS-Graph 3.0 Build 1130 for inferential analysis and SPSS version 16.0 for descriptive analysis.The results show a significant relationship between affective commitment and attitudinal loyalty and behavioral loyalty and that continuance commitment is not significantly related to loyalty.In addition,the results indicate that affective commitment has a greater impact on loyalty than calculative commitment;however there was no significant relationship between attitudinal loyalty and CLV or between behavioral loyalty and CLV.

CHOICE OVERLOAD AND PURCHASE INTENTION AMONG MILLENNIAL RURAL AND URBAN CONSUMERSSoumya Mohan (5930057) 02 May 2020 (has links)
Many researchers have
studied the interaction between choice overload and purchase intention resulting
in mixed and sometimes contradictory results. This study extended the current
knowledge and examined how rurality (rural vs. urban/suburban) among millennial
consumers influences choice overload and purchase intention when presented with
extensive or limited options. Using both quantitative survey data and
qualitative interviews, the author studied consumer experiences to understand
choice overload and purchase intention better. Overall, some of the results
suggest a statistical difference between rural and urban/suburban participants
in their feelings of choice overload. However, many of the results were small
and unlikely to be of practical significance. Additionally, the interviews were
analyzed and multiple themes emerged, including possible factors that may
support prior meta-analytic conclusions about the nuance of choice overload.

The Triggers of Buyers Regret of Impulsive PurchasesEsterhammer, Oliver, Huang, Jiahao January 2017 (has links)
Attention on impulsive buying behavior has been increased from both researchers and marketers, as the negative consumption experience resulting from this unplanned buying could harm the business severely in terms of brand building, reputation as well as a loss of customer. By reviewing previous literatures, we have identified that there is still little research about the post-consumer behavior of impulse purchases, namely on consumers’ regret triggered from what they have bought impulsively. The purpose of this study is to discover the triggers of buyer regret from impulse purchase, which is presented by the research question “What are the triggers of buyer regret from impulse purchases?” By conducting a quantitative research, we proposed a conceptual model of impulse purchase regret that consists of six hypotheses. The technical tool that we used to test the conceptual model is a SPSS extension called AMOS, whereas the analysis method uses the application of structural equation modeling. We collected our primary data (187 viable responses) via a questionnaire through convenience sampling. By testing all the data with AMOS, we received the following result: 5 hypotheses are accepted and 1 hypothesis is rejected. This result indicates that upwards counterfactual thinking (CFT) on forgone alternatives, a change in significance, and under consideration are positively related to impulse purchase regret; external stimuli and consumer susceptibility to interpersonal influence (CSII) have indirect influence on impulse purchase regret. By applying our theoretical background to analyze the result, we suggest that consumer’s rational buying thinking still plays an important role in post evaluation stage of impulse purchase, even though it disrupts the rational buying process in the beginning. Lastly, we believe that several parties could benefit from our research, they are marketing, academia as well as consumers.

Customer Trial of Self-Service Technology : An investigation of vending machines for non-prescription drugsNguyen Vu Bao, Chau, Mpambara, Diane January 2011 (has links)
Background In the context of the deregulation in the pharmaceutical industry in Sweden, many new business chances have been created. The rising numbers of players in the market started up the race for gaining market shares and attracting customers with new products and services. One of the new players, GreenCross AB, introduced MiniApotek, a vending machine of non-prescription medicine, to the Swedish market. The business concept is to provide a new, secured and convenient way of buying non-prescription medicine to the Swedish society. However, there is a gap between the retailer’s business expectation and the customers’ perception of this new service. Purpose The purpose of this thesis is to investigation the different factors that affect potential customers’ trial behavior of self-service technology. Specifically, the researchers explore and examine the main factors that directly manipulate customers’ trial at MiniApotek. Method A quantitative approach is applied in this thesis to identify the key factors and explain their strong influence to trial. The empirical data collected from conducting a survey at Stockholm University, was combined with e-mail communication with GreenCross AB. These materials were analyzed in accordance with the three applied theories, the product concept, pre-purchase stage in consumers’ decision making process and model of customers’ trial of self-service technologies. Conclusion The researchers conclude that there is a strong influence of inertia, need for personal interaction, technology anxiety and perceived risk on the trial of potential customers at MiniApotek. It is found that these factors have a negative effect on the adoption process of MiniApotek in Swedish market. Consequently, the authors think GreenCross AB needs to get a better understanding of the real market need and take these factors into great consideration, as well as find a better strategy to improve the company’s business situation.

The Impact of Product Line Advertisement on Consumer Reference Price and Purchase BehaviorChou, Ching-yi 12 February 2008 (has links)
Product line extension is considered a low-cost, low-risk strategy of introducing products under the same category. Under product line extension strategy, however, manufactures and retailers usually advertise merely one product during a certain period, rather than advertising all products within the product line at the same time. Taking example of Coke Cola, it keeps extending its product line horizontally in the past years. There are Classic, Diet and Zero Coke belonging to the main product line. As we observed, Coke Cola seldom advertised for three products simultaneously. On the contrary, to highly impress consumers, only one product would be strongly promoted in a certain period. What is interesting is whether the advertisement of Zero Coke lowers the price that Classic Coke buyers are prepared to pay toward Classic Coke while zero calorie is highly emphasized in ads. It would be interesting to investigate the impact of product line advertisement on consumers to see whether the product line advertisement always brings positive influence on reference price toward consumers with different purchase purposes.
This research addressed the question of how product-line advertisement influences consumer¡¦s reference price within vertical and horizontal product line. It combined the research of product line extension and the concept of reference price to give advice for marketing. The category of product used in experiment is durable that was suggested in prior study. To examine the relationship between product-line advertisement and reference price, experimental method was performed here to test different kind of product line advertisement toward consumers with different purpose purposes, buying high-end product, low-end product or one certain product belonging to the horizontal product line. The results indicated that within the vertical product line, the brand advertisement with low-end product decreases the reference price toward high-end product buyers whereas the informational advertisement with low-end product increases the reference price toward high-end product buyers. Besides, within the horizontal product line, both of the brand and informational advertisement with one certain product in horizontal product line decreases the reference price toward the buyer who would like to buy another product belonging to the same product line.
