Personal factors: Audience demographics such as age, culture, profession, age and background play major roles in forming consumers' interests and opinions. Social factors: A person's social groups affect how they shop. Their income, education level and social class influence their buying behaviors.
What drives consumers to buy?
Truly, there are so many inputs that go into a purchase decision: one's wants, needs, ability to afford something, motivations, desires, etc. So, what can we do? The first step that should be taken is market segmentation. Segmentation is the process of grouping people based on similar characteristics.
When it comes to the psychological factors there are 4 important things affecting the consumer buying behaviour, i.e. perception, motivation, learning, beliefs and attitudes. Social factors include reference groups, family, and social status. These factors too affect the buying behaviour of the consumer.
