Scenarios Relating to Consumer Behavior

This week we’re discussing consumer behavior, what it is and why it’s important. We have learned that consumer behavior is the process in which consumers, who are motivated by a need work to find ways to fill those needs. Consumer behavior can be looked at as a human behavior (thoughts, feelings and actions) in relationship to consumption and consumer behavior as a field of study. The consumption process includes: a want, exchange, costs, benefits and reactions. And consumer behavior can be studied as a part of economics, psychology, sociology and marketing. As we have read in our lesson this week, consumer behavior is relevant in a variety of situations.
