- How do consumers think, feel & (re-)act in buying contexts?
- How can their behavior be explained from a theoretical point of view; which factors determine the outcome of consumer decision making processes and which stimuli may trigger impulse buying?
- And: How can marketers make use of these theoretical consumer insights in designing their products, stores, sales interactions and communication campaigns?At the and of the semester, you will have acquired the theoretical foundations to deal with these questions. A number of lectures will provide you with the theoretical underpinnings to develop an in-depth understanding of consumers and their buying behavior. You will be able to apply your knowledge to solve practical marketing problems. Working on practical cases in groups and discussing your solutions in class will provide you with the necessary practical competences. You may use AI-tools as well as AI-based Software in working on your marketing cases.Further details: https://marketing.univie.ac.at/studium/master/lvs-im-wintersemester/
