Communication and performance as construction of meaning.

masculine norm that states “pink is for women” and abiding by “gender
scripts”

mobile phone personalization
41. Suggestion
• Gender is a very important factor among all the factors; it plays a very crucial
role in purchase decisions.
• Females and males both shows totally different behavior when they purchase
any goods or services.
• Where women are more subjective and intuitive men tend to be more
analytical and logical who make their opinion based on other peoples purchase
rather than trying it themselves. Further, where men tend to make purchases
based on the immediate needs women look at purchase as a long term decision.
• Marketers have to understand and use this segmentation factor wisely in order
to satisfy needs more accurately and effectively.
• For increasing mobile sale it is very important for any marketing manger to
first understand the marketing segment which they are targeting.
