Powerpoint 2
Motivation:
• Inner state of activation that provides energy needed to achieve a goal
• Consumers can be motivated to acquire, use, or dispose of an offering
• It leads to:
1. High effort behavior
Drives that bring a goal closer and creates a willingness to spend time and money
• Examples:
o I need a new iPhone and I am looking for a better job to pay for it
o I need to loose weight and am willing to go to the gym
2. High effort information processing and decision making
• When consumers are highly motivated to achieve a goal, they are more likely to pay
careful attention to it.
• Examples:
• If you are motivated to buy a new piano keyboard, you might scour websites
looking for a sale or like a Facebook page of a keyboard brand.
• Your motivation to purchase the best paper clips on the market is likely to be
low. You would devote little attention to it.
• Sometimes consumers process information in a biased way, so that they can reach
the conclusion they wanted to reach anyway.
• Examples:
• If you are desperate to loose weight, you may buy too many low-calories
products
• If you cannot stop smoking you will look for information about healthy food
to compensate for the ill effects of smoking
