Culture influences consumer behavior through learned beliefs, values, and customs. A theoretical model shows culture's influence through an individual's cultural lens and by satisfying needs. Culture is learned through enculturation, acculturation, language, symbols, rituals, and sharing beliefs within a society. Rituals often involve products and marketers recognize the role of rituals. Culture is dynamic and evolves based on factors like technology, population shifts, and changing values. Market researchers analyze culture through content analysis, fieldwork including observation and participation, and instruments to measure values.

Culture and differences in culture across the globe form an important aspect of marketing. One of the biggest factors that is taken into consideration by both marketing analysts and consumers is culture. Cultural Marketing, therefore, has gained importance as a way of marketing and market research. Especially when it comes to international trade and global marketing. The volatile nature of cultures as a concept makes it very difficult to predict the success or failure of a product or service. Cultural differences in marketing, therefore form the fundamental decision-making factors in the international marketing arena.
