TARGET SEGMENT
Students make the largest
part of the population
visiting Big Bazaar because of
the low prices. The reason
why home-makers are not at
the 1st rank is probably
because they tend to make
most of their purchases from
vendors near their residence.

Editor's Notes

  • #19 This model highlights the motivation process. We can see that the “drive” toward behavior will often end in the fulfillment of the need. The processes and effects of previous learning tie strongly into choices made when the behavior is defined.
