Question

this study? Discuss.

Buyer Behavior
 In industrial marketing, the buying process is more difficult
as compared to consumer marketing. The purchase
decisions in industrial marketing are based on many
factors, such as compliance with product Specifications
product quality, availability, timely supply, acceptable
payment and other commercial terms cost effectiveness,
after-sales service, and so on rather than on social and
psychological needs.
 The buying decisions generally take a longer time and
involve many individuals from technical,
commercial/materials, and finance departments. After the
initial offer made by a seller, there are negotiations and
exchange of information between both the prospective
buyer and the seller’s organization.
3
 Therefore, inter-organisational contacts take place and
interpersonal relationships are developed. The relationships
between the sellers and buyers are highly valued and they
become stable in the long run because Of a high degree of
interdependence. Changes are few and occur relatively slowly.
Buyers charge problems in searching out and qualifying
suppliers. The cost of selecting a supplier who cannot meet
delivery requirements or who delivers an unsatisfactory product
can be high.
 Thus, the purchasing firm must be certain of a potential
supplier's technical, administrative, and financial capabilities. In
contrary, in consumer marketing the relationship between a
buyer and a seller is non-personal. Consumers change their
purchasing habits frequently and the buying decisions are always
based on physiological, social and psychological needs of the
members of a family household.
