It is probably true that most of us would see ourselves as rational people. When questioned about our reasons for buying we are more likely to come up with rational reasons – but if we are really honest with ourselves, we know intuitively that that isn’t really the whole story. Alongside the rational reasons customers might tell us will influence their buying decision will almost certainly be some very powerful emotional factors that will strongly influence their decision.
Primary Buying Motives
- Profit (Price, protection of investment)
- Convenience (Makes the customer’s work life easier)
