Final Flashcards
innovation that has limited effect on existing consumption patterns
continuous innovation
innovation that has a pronounced effect on consumption practice and often involves a new technology
dynamically continuous innovation
offering that is so new that we have never known anything like it before
discontinuous innovation
new product, service, attribute, or idea that has utilitarian benefits that are different from or better than those of alternatives
functional innovation, hybrid cars
innovation that appeals to our aesthetic, pleasure seeking, and or sensory needs
hedonic or aesthetic innovation, new music
product, service, or attribute, or idea that has new social meaning
symbolic innovation, new clothes
actively involving consumers in creating value through participation in new product development, among other marketing activities
cocreation
purchase of innovation by an individual consumer or household
adoption
desire not to buy the innovation , even in the face of pressure to do so
resistance
purchase of an innovation based on considerable decision making effort
high effort hierarchy of effects
percentage of population that has adopted an innovation at a specific point in time
diffusion
diffusion curve characterized by slow initial growth followed by rapid increase in diffusion
s-shaped diffusion curve
diffusion curve characterized by rapid initial growth
exponential diffusion curve
conecpt that suggests that products go through an initial intro period followed by periods of sales growth, maturity, and decline
product life cycle
successful innovation that has a very short life cycle
fad
successful innovation that has a moderately long life cycle and potentially cyclical product life cycle
fashion
successful innovation that has a lengthy product life cycle
classic
benefits in an innovation superior to those found in existing products
relative advantage
finding use for a product that differs from products original intended use
use innovativeness
extent to which an innovation is consistent with ones needs, values, norms, or behaviors
compatibility
extent to which an innovation can be tried on limited basis before adoption
trialability
extent to which innovation is complicated and difficult to understand or use
complexity
extent to which an innovation can be observed or to which having others observe it has social cachet
social relevance
extent to which innovation follows established guidelines for what seems appropriate in the category
legitimacy
extent to which innovation can foster new styles
adaptability
extent to which consumers in the social system have positive attitudes towards change
modernity
3 characteristics of innovations
degree of novelty, benefits offered, breadth
high effort adoption
when consumers see risks, when innovation is discontinuous, many people involved in decision, form attitudes before trial
high risk tolerance, high social status, financial liquidity
innovators 2.5%
highest degree of opinion leadership, high social status, use judicious choice of adoption to help maintain central communication position
early adopters 13.5%
adopt after significantly longer period of time, above avg social status, contact w early adoptors
majority adopters 34%
adopt innovation after average participant, approach innovation with high degree of skepticism, little opinion leadership
late majority 34%
last to adopt, little to no opinion leadership, tend to focus on traditions
laggards 16%
diffusion shape associated with risk
s shaped
diffusion rate associated with little risk and switching cost is low
exponential
product life cycle
intro, growth (competitors enter, consumers adopt), maturity (weak competitors forced out, sales plateau), decline (acceptance wanes)
higher perceived value, relative advantage, innovative, lower costs, lower risks
more likely to be adopted
social relevance
observability, social value, legitimacy, adaptability
social system diffusion characteristics
modernity, homophily (faster when consumers similar to each other), physical distance, opinion leadership
natural grouping of objects that reflect our culture
cultural categories
ideas or values that specify how aspects of our culture are organized and/or how they should be perceived or evaluated
cultural principles
use of products to symbolize membership in social groups
emblematic function
use of products as symbols to help feel more comfortable in new role
role acquisition fuction
feedback from others that tells us whether we are fulfilling the role correctly
reflexive evaluaiton
use of products as symbols of our personal connections to significant people, events, or experiences
connectedness function
use of products as symbols to demonstrate our uniqueness
expressiveness function
set of multiple salient identities that reflects our self-concept
actual identity schema
set of ideas about how the identity would be indicated in its ideal form
ideal identity schema
stimulated by language cues, a consumer who identifies with more than one culture will activate the aspects of his or her self-concept that relates to that languages cultural backgroudn
frame switching
ritual we engage in when first acquire product that helps make it ours
possession ritual
ritual we engage in to bring out or maintain the best in special products
grooming ritual
ritual enacted at the disposition stage designed to wipe away all traces of our personal meaning with product
divestment ritual
people things and places that are set apart, revered, worshipped, and treated with great respect
sacred entities
things that are ordinary and hence have no special power
profane things
first stage of gift giving, when consider what to give someone
gestation stage
