Consumer Buying Behavior

Introduction:

Consumer buying behavior is very important in every organization or business. In the field of marketing, the concept of consumer behavior gains greater importance because customer satisfaction is an important era to earn more profit and generate more revenue in every business field. Consumer buying behavior is a combination of customer buying consciousness and external incentive. Consumer influence price, motivation, perceived culture, and religious orientation. Each and every consumer has his own personality and Perception which is different in any sense. Consumer purchase products also reflect personality and behavior patterns. In businesses, organizations take some important decisions to satisfy their customers. They started a marketing campaign, advertised their product, maintained a positive environment, and provided the best quality at lower and reasonable prices. Due to these factors satisfying consumer needs and desires. Customers buy their goods and services and increase our product value and demand and the organization also starts trading our product and generates higher costs and earns more income. Organizations move toward more innovation and growing rapidly in this Technological and competitive era.

Literature review:

Price is a very important factor for marketers to know when a customer wants to buy a product or service so it tells the value of the payment. A price is demonstrated by production cost and demand of the product because customers demand a good quality at lower prices. Price is a powerful indicator of quality the consumer bent on a purchase will approach the market. (Gabor & A., 1979). 

Motivation is something that is formed by a state of tension by having a need that is not fulfilled. Motivation is a very important factor to fully satisfy our customer needs and demand and release the state of tension. Motivation grows the interest of customers and raises the benefit to gain a higher income and increase market share. (Hawkins). 

The culture is the custom, value, idea, norm, and social behavior of an individual. Every consumer has his own perception, ideas, and thinking ability. Different perceptions of consumers need different varieties of products because it has no homogeneous culture and it behaves in different ways. Culture is an important concept to understand consumer behavior and needs to be examined.

Religion plays a significant role in culture and religious orientation. Religion can be defined as a unified system. In marketing concepts, religious orientation impacts consumer buying behavior because people have different traditions. It follows a different religious orientation, so every consumer has its own marketing need and demand (McMurry & M). Religious orientation represents a potentially significant element, the many not all, the problem solving and decision making.

Consumer buying behavior is very important for marketers if the customer satisfaction market will grow more and move toward innovation. Consumer buying behavior is heterogeneous; it will impact on different factors: price, motivation, culture, and religious orientation. Price is the factor of consumers and always a major element of consumers to make buying decisions (Usama et al, 2019). 

Whereas motivation can be described as an energizing force that activates certain behaviors that in turn provide direction to their behavior. Culture and religious orientation are very important for consumers to gain customer loyalty and satisfaction because every consumer has its own perception, thinking it behaves individually so her consumer buying behavior is essentially very important for every organization or marketers if the customer satisfies the build image and gains higher profit.
