CONSUMER DECISION MAKING PROCESS
Purchase

EVALUATION OF ALTERNATIVES
Consumers use several attributes when they are evaluating
alternative products and they are more interested in a
specific attribute that brings the sought benefits.
Example: Price, Quality, availability, service, performance
etc
The number of criteria used in decision making are
relatively limited, usually less than six.
Also, not all criteria are equally important.
The criteria used to make a decision change depends on
the consumer, the product, and the situation.
PURCHASE
Consumers generally make three types of purchase:
trial purchase, repeat purchase and long term
commitment purchase.
Trial purchase would be in smaller in quantity and it would
be also termed as Exploratory phase.
Repeat purchase is very closely related to brand loyalty,
which firms try to encourage because it contributes to
greater stability in the market share.
POST-PURCHASE
The purchasing process does not end when a consumer buys
a product . After the purchase consumers tend to evaluate
their experience to decide if they are satisfied or
dissatisfied.
The information will be used in future decision-making.
The performance of the product or service will be compared
with consumers expectations. There are three possible
outcomes of these evaluations:
Perceived performance meeting expectations
Perceived performance exceeding expectations
Perceived performance being lower than expectations
