INTRODUCTION
Purchase decision making for a product or service is always considered as the main
problem for a consumer. For this reason we have to keep sufficient knowledge on Buyer
Behavior and how to gather and manage it effectively.
"Customers set up a hierarchy of values, wants, and needs based on empirical data,
opinions, word-of-mouth references, and previous experiences with products and services.
They use that information to make purchasing decisions."_______Regis McKenna
To make a baying decision we have to follow some process and also have to face somefactors. In this report we discussed all the processes and factors we use Wireless Internet
Connection as an example. However, these issues are mainly related with Consumer
Buying Behavior.
Now as being a CONSUMER suggestions and recommendations are given below.

1.1
Definition of Buying Behavior:
Buying Behavior is the decision processes and acts of people mixed up in buying and using
products.
Consumer Buying Behavior
What influences consumers to buy products or services? The consumer buying procedure is a
complex subject as several internal and external factors have an impact on the buying decisions
of the purchaser.
When purchasing a product there several steps, which consumers go through. These will be
discussed below.
Stages of the Consumer Buying Process
There are main five stages to the Consumer Buying Behavior Decision Process and overall Six
Stages. Actual purchasing is only one step of the process. Not all choice processes lead to a buy.All consumer decisions do not all the time contain all 6 stages, determined by the degree of
involvedness discussed next.
For example, a student want to take wireless internet connection, internet would recognize the
need (Wireless Internet Modem) now there is three options for wireless internet connections.
1. WiMAX2. EDGE (from the GSM based cell phone companies)and3. CDMA (citycell ZOOM)
To make right to purchase decision, skipping information search and estimate. However, the
model is very positive when it comes to considerate any purchase that requires a few thought and
consideration.

The purchase process starts with need detection. At this stage, the buyer recognizes a problem or
want (e.g. need Internet Connection, need cell phone)
Figure: A- Main five stages to the Consumer Buying Behavior Decision Process
The 6 stages are:
1. Problem Recognition - difference among the desired state and the actual situation.Deficit in assortment of goods. Wireless Internet connection stimulates need to acquire
Internet. Need unlimited connection at low cost, strong network, removable and small
size modem, need warranty on Modem, want to get strong network a all over the country
etc. Can be inspired by the marketer through product information

2. Information search- Internal search, External search if we need additional information. Friends and family (sound of
mouth). Marketer dominated sources; contrast shopping; open sources etc.
A successful information seek leaves a buyer with possible alternatives,
Wireless Internet, want to go to purchase
Banglalion WiMAX Qubee WiMAX Grameen Phone (EDGE) Warid Telecome (EDGE) Banglalink (EDGE) Robi (EDGE) Citycell (CDMA)
3. Evaluation of Alternatives- need to found criteria for evaluation, features the purchaserrequirements or does not desire. Rank/weight alternatives or resume seek. May decide
that we want to get high speed connection at cheap rate, want to get strong network all
over the country etc. If not satisfied with the choice then return to the search phase. We
have to think for all internet service providers. We can go for yellow pages, google,
yahoo and different types of search engines to gather information etc. Information from
different sources may be treated in a different way. Marketers try to come out with the
best alternatives.
4. Purchase decision- Identify buying option, includes product, package, store, method ofbuy etc.
5. Purchase- can vary from decision, packages, coverage, product availability.6. Post-Purchase Evaluation- Satisfaction or Dissatisfaction. Cognitive Dissonance, have
we made the right choice. This can be condensed by warranties, after sales

communication etc. Imagine after using Banglalion WiMAX, may think that really we
wanted a Qubee WiMAX or EDGE or CDMA services.
Maslows Hierarchy of Needs
Abraham Maslow hierarchy of needs theory sets out to give details what motivated individuals in
life to get. He set out his respond in a form of
a hierarchy. He suggests individuals aim to
meet essential psychological needs of hunger
and thirst.
When this has been met they then move up to
the next step of the hierarchy, safety needs,
where the right of way lay with job security
and the knowing that an income will be
accessible to them regularly. Social needs
come in the
Figure: B- Abraham Maslow`s Hierarchy of Needs
next stage of the hierarchy, the need to belong or be loved is a natural human want and people do
strive for this belonging. Esteem need is the need for position and recognition within society,
status occasionally drives people, the need to have a good job title and be recognized or the need
to wear branded clothes as a representation of status.
Self-actualization the understanding that an individual has reached their potential in life. The
position of self-actualization is down to the individual, when we know we reached our position
of self-fulfillment.
So Maslows theory is useful for marketers as it can help them understand and develop consumer
needs and wants.

Types of Consumer Buying Behavior
Types of consumer buying behavior are determined by:
Level of participation in buy decision. Importance and intensity of curiosity in a productin a particular position.
Buyers stage of participation determines why he/she is motivated to seek informationconcerning a certain products and brands but virtually ignores others.
High participation purchasesWiMAX, new and high quality goods, as soon as possible cover
all over the country, products visible to others, and the higher the risk the higher the connection.
Types of risk:
Personal risk Social risk Economic risk
The four type of consumer buying behavior are:
Routine Response Behavior--buying low participation regularly purchased low costitems; need very little search and decision effort; purchased almost routinely. For
Examples include WiMAX connection, EDGE and CDMA connection etc.
Limited Decision Making--buying product irregularly. When we have to to obtaininformation about unknown brand in a familiar product group, perhaps. Requires a
moderate amount of time for information gathering. For Examples WiMAX Internet--
know product class but not the brand.
Extensive Decision Making/Complex high involvement, unknown, expensive and/orinfrequently bought products. High degree of economic/performance/psychological risk.

For Examples: for internet connection, Mobile Phone. Cannot spend a lot of time seeking
in order to make decision. Information from the companys Marketing Mix; friends and
relatives, store personnel etc. We can go all the way during all six stages of the buying
process.
Impulse buying, no conscious preparation.

Public group determines to a few extent, the types, class, and quantity of products that a person
buys or uses.
Culture and Sub-culture--Culture refers to the set of values, ideas, and attitudes that are recognized by a homogenous
group of people and transmit to the next generation.
Culture also determines what is reasonable with product advertising. Culture determines what
people carry, eat, reside and travel. Cultural value in the US is good health, education,
individualism and liberty. In american culture time scarcity is a rising trouble. IE alter in meals.
Big impact on global marketing.
Culture can be separated into subcultures:
Geographic regions Human characteristics such as age and ethnic background.
For example: West Coast, teenage and Asian American.
Culture affects what people purchase, how they purchase and when they purchase.
1.4
Brand Loyalty is the consumer's aware or unaware decision, expressed through objective or
behavior, to repurchase a brand repeatedly. It occurs because the buyer perceives that the brand
offers the correct product features, image, or rank of quality at the accurate price. Consumer
performance is ordinary because habits are secure and recognizable. In order to create brand
loyalty, advertisers have to break consumer behavior, help them increase new habits, and support
those habits by reminding consumers of the value of their buy and support them to continue
purchasing those products in the future.

The representation nearby a company's brand is the major source of its competitive growth and is
therefore a valuable planned benefit. Unluckily, many companies are not practiced at
disseminating a strong, clear message that not only distinguishes their brand from the competitor,
but distinguishes it in a unforgettable and positive manner. The challenge for all brands is to
keep away from the pitfalls of portraying a muddled or negative image, and instead, create a
broad brand vision or individuality that recognizes a brand as something greater than a set of
attributes that can be imitated or surpassed. In fact, a company should vision its brand to be not
just a product or service, but as an overall brand image that defines a companys philosophies. A
brand requirements more than individuality; it needs a personality. Just like a person without
exciting characteristics, a brand with no individuality can simply be passed right over. A strong
sign or company logo can also help to make brand loyalty by making it quickly special.
From the drawing of a new product to the addition of a mature brand, successful marketing
strategies depend on a thorough considerate of the inspiration, learning, memory, and decision
processes that ability what consumers buy theories of consumer performance have been
frequently linked to managerial decisions linking development and launching of new products,
segmentation, timing of market entry, and brand running. Consequently, the matter of brand
loyalty has been examined at great duration. Branding is by far one of the majority important
factors influencing an item's realization or letdown in the marketplace, and can have a significant
force on how the "company behind the brand" is supposed by the buying public. In other words,
the brand is not just a representation of a company's product; it is a sign of the company, and that
is where the core of brand loyalty lies.
The image nearby a company's brand is the principal source of its competitive benefit and is
therefore a valuable strategic asset.
