From Wiktionary under the GNU Free Documentation License. Consumer is a broad label that refers to any individuals or households that use goods and services generated within the economy. The concept of a consumer is used in different contexts, so that the usage and significance of the term may vary. In economics and marketingTypically when business people and economists talk of consumers they are talking about person as consumer, an aggregated commodity item with little individuality other than that expressed in the buy/not-buy decision. However there is a trend in marketing to individualize the concept. Instead of generating broad demographic profile and psycho graphic profiles of market segments, marketers are engaging in personalized marketing, permission marketing, and mass customization. There is increasing backlash from the public over use of the label "consumer" rather than "customer", with many finding it offensive and derogatory. From Wikipedia under the
GNU Free Documentation License How is the consumer confidence level calcuated? Q. Also, who is in charge of calcuating this? I never heard about the consumer confidence level until last night on the news. Just curious if anybody has any information on it. Asked by hubasket - Thu Apr 20 17:36:49 2006 - - 1 Answers - 0 Comments A. first you have to understand the diff between consumer n customer... customer is the one who purchases certian item and may or may not use... but the consumer is the one who may or may not purchase but always use. so consumer confidence level is calculated by the seller who sells particular item to the buyer who may be the customer or customer who will directly consume. repeatition of purchasing certain item by the use can be measured by the seller and he can assume that because of his repeatition his confidence level on ceratain label or brand is high or vise versa... i hope u understand :) Answered by ali - Thu Apr 20 17:48:31 2006 What is the cost to the consumer in a product analysis context?
