Consumer Behaviour - Tapa blanda

In my journey of building a consumer brand from scratch many of my ‘do or die’ decisions have been made by putting my consumers at the forefront. Zubin Sethna and Jim Blythe have produced the most comprehensive work on consumer behavior that I have ever seen, by far. It covers consumer behavior from all angles including an understanding of psychological and sociological issues. Throughout, the book is superbly illustrated with diagrams and consumer behavior is brought to life by several real-world case studies, all enabling the reader to obtain a complete and thorough understanding of the subject. It is a must read for students and practitioners alike! (Lord Karan Bilimoria of Chelsea)

Whether we like it or not, artificial intelligence is here to stay and the speed at which its applications are adopted by the consumer will only continue to rise. Lifestyle considerations, spending shifts, motivational movements and value adjustments, to name but a few, are all part of the behavioural impact which differ from generation to generation and across the gender spectrum. Sethna and Blythe have very eloquently captured the nuances of Consumer Behaviour by identifying key theories and strategies which take a consumer-centric approach and will undoubtedly help organisations and individuals minimise risk and benefit from the commercial opportunities. (Stuart Sherman)
