| Contents: | In order to survive in increasingly dynamic and global markets, companies need to know their consumers as well as how they behave in the marketplace. Consumer behavior comprises different behavioral acts, for instance the purchase of products and services, or consumption of such. Possessing fundamental knowledge of consumers’ behavior enables companies to implement their marketing activities (e.g., market segmentation, positioning, product design, pricing) more effectively and efficiently. This course aims at conveying fundamental theories and current research insights on consumer behavior. This comprises topics like information processing, decision making, as well as the influence of key concepts such as lifestyle, culture, and values. |
