 Customer / Client Orientation & Behaviour

• In development of products/ services & effective

marketing campaigns – the marketer needs to
understand why consumers behave as they do

• This helps marketers

– Shape/ adapt/ create product- service offering
– To encourage new consumers to buy a product/
service
– What to emphasise in communication to a
specific ‘audience’ / group of consumers.

18
 Consumer Needs and Wants

• Marketers aim to know the specific needs & wants

consumers are attempting to satisfy & how they
translate these into purchasing criteria

• Many products/ services consumers purchase

satisfy their wants rather than their basic needs

• Wants are shaped by people’s knowledge,

personality, culture, values, behaviour with the
product/product category

• Changes in peoples lives often result in new needs

and wants

19
 Consumer / Customer Needs and Wants

• Need & Wants are not the same thing, though often
confusing to distinguish

– Needs are the basic motivators or drivers

– Wants or desires are shaped by people’s knowledge,

personality, culture, values. Some of the ‘drivers’ for
wants may be embedded in deep societal or familial
norms that shape the individual as they grow into
adulthood

20
 Needs and Wants

Needs Wants

Essential to be met Nice to have

Objective, definable Not essential

Obvious , Logical Subjective , not declared

Category generic Emotions based often

Trade off one v another

Most Suppliers do this well Consumer choices are mostly made on these
21
 Customer Value - Introduction
• Creating superior customer value is a core theme in
marketing.

• Customers make their buying choices based on their

perceptions of the value that various ‘offerings’ will deliver
to them.

• Definition – “CV is the difference between the benefits the

customer gains from having access to or owning the offering
and the price paid in obtaining it.”

22
 Customer Value - Introduction
• Consumers don’t often judge the offer value & price
accurately or objectively

• They act on perceived value

• Its more than the economic benefits & price they

paid- it includes emotional, altruistic or social
benefits

23
 Customer Satisfaction- Introduction

Definition: “The extent to which a product or

service’s perceived performance matches a
buyers expectations. If the product performance
falls short of expectations, the buyer is
dissatisfied. If performance matches or exceeds
expectations, the buyer is satisfied or delighted.”
