My Experience With Scanning the Marketing Environment and Ethical and Social Responsibility for Sustainable Marketing

When I started my assignment for this week, I never really thought about technology improving and replacing products, because I was used to technology making life better. It is possible you have not noticed it either. After doing research about how technology improves so many things in our lives, it helped me appreciate the things I have.  





When I did the ethics question in the textbook, I was surprised to see all the examples, it is nice to be informed on all the things happening in the world, like with the pricing of Cerdelga for the treatment of a rare genetic disease. It makes me sad I never noticed this because it got me thinking, just how many other situations like that are happening, and I have no idea that it is happening?

My Experiences With Understanding Consumer Behavior, Understanding Organizations as Customers, and Understanding and Reaching Global Consumers and Markets

When I worked on this weeks assignment I wasn't aware of the consumer purchase decision process in Chapter 5 and how it consists of five stages, problem recognition, information search, alternative evaluation, purchase decision, and post purchase behavior. It was just one of those things I didn't really think about until now. When I got to Chapter 6, I learned that there are three different organizational markets , which are industrial, reseller, and government. It was fascinating reading about all the different markets and how they operate. It must take a lot of work to keep all that together. When I got to Chapter 7, I got to learn all about how a global perspective on world trade views exports and imports as complementary economic flows, which are a country's imports affect its exports and exports affect its imports. It was really interesting to read how all that worked. I loved doing the questions on Chapter 7 the most, really interesting information about Japan an

Reaction Paper: Consumer Decision Process

When I want to make a purchase on something, I think. what do I want? Do I want something that's related to my hobbies, like wrestling or video games? Do I need to buy anything like Fathers Day gifts? Do I want to buy something at a discount at the store I work at? When I want to purchase something related to my hobbies, 9 times out of 10 I will go to Amazon to see if they have what I'm looking for. Its usually things like toys to collect or a video game accessory that would look nice to own.  If I wanted to wait and buy something at my store, something like vitamins or things my family wants while I'm there, then I would buy those things with the employee discount I have.

The Final WebLog

When I got to Chapter 7, I got to learn all about how a global perspective on world trade views exports and imports as complementary economic flows, which are a country's imports affect its exports and exports affect its imports. It was really interesting to read how all that worked. I loved doing the questions on Chapter 7 the most, really interesting information about Japan and how an American commercial wouldn't be as successful in Japan like it would in America. While reading Chapter 10, I learned that f rom the important perspective of the consumer, newness is often seen as the degree of learning that a consumer must engage in to use the product. With continuous innovation, no new behaviors must be learned. With dynamically continuous innovation, only minor behavioral changes are needed. With a discontinuous innovation, consumers must learn entirely new consumption patterns.  I never thought of it that way, so this was a new learning experience for me. While reading
