CHAPTER 1
1.1 BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY
CONSUMER S conformity can be shaped by three different types of reference group influences ;informational, normative and indentification.
It is important to distinguish among these types, since the marketing strategy required depends on the type of influence involved.INFORMATIONAL INFLUENCE; Informational influence occurs when an individual uses the Group Behaviour and opinions of reference group members as potentially useful bits of information. This influence is based on either the similarity of the groups members to the individual or the expertise of the influencing group member. Thus a person may notice several members of a given group using a particular brand of coffee, he or she may then decide Group Behaviour
To try that brand simply because there is evidence that it may be a good brand. Or one may decide to purchase a particular brand model of computer because of friend who is very knowledge able about computers owns or recommend it Group Behaviour . In these case conformity is the result of information shared by the group members
NORMATIVE INFLUENCE; Normative influence sometimes referred to asd utilitarian influence, occurs when an individual fulfills group expectations to gain
A direct reward or to avoid a sanction. One may purchase a particular brand of clothing to win approval from your colleagues. Or you may refrain from wearing the latest fashion for fear for teasing by friends.The essence of normative influence is the presence of a direct reward or sanction Group Behaviour
IDENTIFICATION INFLUENCE; Identification influence also called value expressive influence occurs when individuals have internalized the groups values
And norms .These then guide the individuals behavior without any thought of reference group sanctions or rewards. The individual has accepted the groups value as his or her own. The individual behaves in a manner consistent with the groups values because the individuals values and the groups values are the same
The research therefore seek to provide an evaluation of group behavior for organizational effectiveness and efficiency.
