RATIONALE

The study of consumer behaviour is seen as critical to understanding all marketing strategy decision making. An understanding of the psychological and sociological aspects of consumers' search and choice processes is vital to an in-depth appreciation of later subjects such as promotion management, market research, strategic marketing and others.




SYNOPSIS

This course develops in depth the basics of consumer behaviour introduced in MKT1001 Introduction to Marketing. It is based upon the premise that consumers are the key to success of any marketing effort and hence marketers need to know how and why consumers behave the way they do. The course examines in detail the environmental influences, individual differences and psychological processes which influence the consumer decision processes. Consumer trends are examined through case analysis, media study and real life application.
