Consumers are part of the household sector and today,the household sector is one of the major sectors contributing to our GDP. Marketers are paying close attention to consumer behavior and continuously study how potential buyers act when purchasing goods or services for personal consumption. Direct-to-consumer businesses are changing the game. Today brands choose to direct their attention at consumers as opposed to pushing products through middlemen.
The past years have faced an unpredictable job market. Though there have been massive shifts, we are still seeing growth across many industries and in many fields. Especially, within the creative, marketing and technology sectors.
Consumer marketing is defined as creating and selling products, goods and services to individual buyers, as opposed to trying to appeal to businesses. You would have often heard about this – Fast Moving Consumer Goods. These are nothing but products that are destined for use by ultimate customers or households that cannot be done with, as their usage is on a day-to-day basis. For Example, Toothpaste, soaps, body lotions, etc. These are meant for personal consumption and the demand for such products is direct.
