Implementation Evaluation Control

“The consumer arrives at attitudes toward different brands through some evaluation procedure (Marketing Pg. 153).”

Understanding that the consumer’s approach towards purchasing a product varies from person to person is a lesson I needed to learn. While some rely on a lot of logical thinking and product comparisons, others do little to no thinking by acquiring products simply by impulse. Implementing a plan that will keep our brand afloat regardless of consumer reaction towards our product is instrumental. While I will stress to push a solid advertising campaign towards my brand of Adobo cracker nuts, it is imperative that we learn to adjust to the market and what consumer wants and needs from us. To accommodate for the instances where consumers experience dissatisfaction with our product, I will provide a hotline where customers can speak with a representative to voice their displeasure or even offer advice as to how we can make our product better. I will also construct focus groups, which will take the data we accumulate about the consumer and adjust our advertising campaign accordingly to raise the customer value of our product.

“The mental process through which an individual passes from first hearing about an innovation to final adoption (Marketing Pg. 154).”


Lastly, it’s important to know the adoption process of the consumer. By understanding the five stages of adopting a new product, we can better tailor our message and get through to the consumer much more effectively. With that being said, I am also instituting a warranty program, which states that if anytime the customer is not satisfied with our product or if the product does not live the standards it adheres to, the consumer will get a full refund. Hopefully this tactic will drive more potential consumers to move from the evaluation period to the trial period. I am relying on the Adobo cracker nuts to drive our customers to transfer over to the adoption section of the process.
