5. What is consumer behavior?

     


    A wide range of factors that affect people's decisions to buy products and services are included in the complex field of consumer behavior. For businesses hoping to draw in and keep consumers, it is imperative to comprehend the factors that influence consumer behavior. So what is consumer behavior? It is the study of how people choose what to buy to fulfill their wants, demands, or seeks and how their actions, feelings, and mental reactions affect that choice.

    Businesses can create more appealing marketing campaigns, products, and pricing structures that attract and keep consumers by studying the elements that affect consumer decision-making. As a result, organizations that specialize in assisting companies in understanding their target audiences—such as market research agencies, consumer research firms, and consulting firms—have grown significantly.

    In the future, the study of consumer behavior is probably going to keep changing in response to developments in technology, shifts in consumer preferences, and changes in the global economy. Businesses will need to modify their marketing strategies as digital technologies become more and more ingrained in our daily lives to reach customers through new channels like social media, mobile apps, and e-commerce platforms.

    Consumers' decisions regarding the goods and services they buy are probably going to be influenced by the increased focus on sustainability, ethical consumption, and corporate social responsibility. Businesses that can prove their dedication to social justice, the environment, and moral business conduct will probably win over more and more ethical customers.

    Moreover, the widespread availability of tools for data analytics, machine learning, and artificial intelligence is probably going to completely change how companies interpret and forecast customer behavior. Businesses may obtain a better understanding of customer preferences, monitor trends in real-time, and target particular demographic groups with their marketing messages by utilizing big data and state-of-the-art technologies.

1. My worst customer service experience!!!

    As you all know, I am Vietnamese and I celebrate Lunar New Year or we call it "Tet". On the first day of Tet, we give and receive lucky money to wish all the best for children and parents. This year is the first time I have celebrated Tet far from home without my family, so I sent lucky money to my parent and my sister through the sending money app online. And my nightmare starts from there.      My friend and I have used Taptapsend, a mobile app for sending money worldwide for years, and it worked very well. We sent and received money from Finland to Canada to Vietnam in just a second. It is very convenient and confidential, and I have never had any trouble with the app. Until this Lunar New Year.      I sent money back to Vietnam directly to my parent's bank account.
