Metrosexual | concerned with appearance, high disposable income |
Androgyny | possession of both masculine and feminine traits |
GLBT consumers characteristics | high disposable income, likely to have high paid jobs and a second hours, still largely ignored by marketers |
Body image | a consumer’s subjective evaluation of his/her physical self, marketing strategies often exploit consumer’s tendencies to distort their body images by preying on insecurities about appearance, creating a gap between real and ideal physical self and consequently the desire to purchase products and services to narrow that gap |

Ethnic subculture | a self-perpetuating group of consumers who share common cultural or genetic ties where both its members and others recognise it as a distinct category |
De-ethnicisation | occurs where a product we associate with a specific ethnic group detaches itself from its roots and appeals to other groups as well |
Acculturation | occurs, at least in part, with the influence of acculturation agents - friends, family, organisations, media |
Consumer acculturation (Penaloza 1994) (four immigration features culture) | Assimilation: immigrants adopt lifestyle of new country, eg products that are identified in mainstream culture Maintenance: immigrants maintain aspects from home, eg continue to eat ethnic food Resistance: immigrants resist the new culture Segregation: immigrants are separated from the residents of country |
4 acculturation strategies for local majority consumers (Luedicke, 2011) | 1. multiculturalism strategy - majority citizens embrace the immigrants as enrichments to the social-cultural fabric 2. ‘pressure cooker’ strategy - majority citizens who expect immigrants to abandon their original culture and to assimilate to the local culture 3. ‘segregation strategy’ - majority citizens who, by denying access to the newcomers, leave immigrants no choice but to pursue their original cultures ways at a distance from the mainstream 4. ‘exclusion strategy’ - majority citizens who proactively exclude immigrants from their local area |

Utilitarian influence (reference groups) | an individual's decision to purchase a brand is influenced by people who they have social interaction with, family members preferences and their own preferences, complying to the image others expect of you |
Value-expressive influence (reference groups) | individual feels the purchase will enhance their image to others, make them be admired/respected by others, give them the characteristic they would like to have, notion of ideal self |
When are reference groups important? (7 power types) | Social power: capacity to alter the actions of others Referent power: when people imitate the behaviour of a person they admire Information power: when someone knows something others would like to know, eg websites that evaluate products Legitimate power: someone is given power due to social agreements, eg police Expert power: when someone has specific knowledge about a content area Reward power: when someone can provide positive reinforcement, eg cash reward Coercive power: influencing a person by social or physical intimidation |

Surrogate consumer | marketing intermediary hired to provide input into purchase decisions however consumer relinquishes control over decision making functions, eg interior designer, wedding planner, |
How do we find opinion leaders? (two methods) | Self-designating method: ask individual's whether they consider themselves to be opinion leaders, easy to apply to a large group of potential opinion leaders, inflation or unawareness of own importance/influence Key informant method: key informants identify opinion leaders |
Word-of-Mouth communication | more reliable form of marketing, social pressure to conform, influences 2/3rds of all sales, powerful when we are unfamiliar with the product category |
Directed learning | existing product knowledge obtained from previous information search or experience of alternatives |
Incidental learning | mere exposure over time to conditioned stimuli and observations of others |
Internal search | scanning our memory bank to assemble information about products |
External search | information is obtained from adverts, friends, brochures etc |

Heuristics | mental shortcuts, to decrease time and effort to make a decision |
Consumer inertia | the tendency to buy a brand out of habit merely because it requires less effort |
Brand loyalty | repeat purchasing behaviour that reflects a conscious decision to continue buying the same brand |
Non-compensatory decision rules (define and three rule types) | shortcuts to make choices, a products with a low standing on one attribute cannot make up for this position by being better on another attribute Lexicographic rule: select the brand that is best on the most important attribute Elimination-by-aspects rules: must have a specific feature to be chosen Conjunctive rules: minimum cutoffs are established - brand chosen if it meets all the cut-offs |
Compensatory decision rules (define and two rules) | collective decision making, give a product a chance to make up for its shortcomings Simple additive rule: choose the alternative with the most positive attributes (even though some maybe be meaningless/unimportant) Weighted additive rule: consumer takes into account the relative importance of positively rates attributes |
Extended problem solving | decision is related to the person’s self concept and the outcome has a high degree of risk/unfamiliar product that carries risk |
