Consumers have specific strategies when making decisions about what they want to buy. These consumer purchasing strategies are predictable because human behavior is at the core of their decision-making.
By studying the behavioral patterns of consumers, businesses can foresee how consumers will receive and respond to a new product or service. When forecasting consumer behavior, marketing managers need data-driven strategies. Traditional research or other strategies such as behavior data review and experiments can be employed according to your business needs to predict the behavior of consumers.
There are three key drivers of consumer behavior:
- Attention
- Emotion
- Coherence
It is essential to gain applicable consumer behavior insights to effectively create branding and pricing strategies.
These psychological elements influence consumers to act the way they do. You can explore how decisions are made by applying concepts such as heuristics and biases, which will enable you and your teams to more accurately and successfully bring your new product or service to market.
