Consumer Psychology

Money is categorized and stored in different psychological accounts, although they are in the same room but independent of each other.

Hundreds of dollars of chocolate placed in the emotional maintenance account during promotion will have a higher purchase rate compared to the living expenses account.

The renovation plan of the decoration company helps customers save several square meters of space => Save money in the house purchase account instead of spending more in the renovation account.

Change the customer's perception of your product, so that they shift from the mental account where they don't want to spend money to the one where they are willing to pay for it.

Deciding to do something => Not only looking at the benefits of this thing in the future, but also paying attention to whether you have invested in it in the past.

The governments of the UK and the US jointly invested in the development of a large supersonic passenger plane, but although it was successfully developed, the two governments suffered huge losses.

Haggling over clothes => Customers repeatedly try on and select, staff spend a lot of energy, in order not to lose the sunk cost may give more preferential

Asking customers to pay a deposit may cause them to lose their desire to buy when they return home, but they will still purchase your product to avoid losing the deposit.

Hosting a grand wedding -> invested a lot of manpower and financial resources, if you get into a fight and want to break up, you feel that it's too troublesome to hold another one, so you choose to compromise.

Sunk costs have no good or bad, but they are stubborn. You can deliberately create sunk costs for the other party to increase the success rate of the transaction.

For us, if we can overcome the bias brought by sunk costs, we may make more rational business judgments.

People are more sensitive to the perception of proportions than to the perception of numerical values themselves.

The same alarm clock, if A store 100 yuan, B store 60 yuan => many people will spend 10 minutes from A to B to save 40 yuan

The same luxury watch, if C store is 6600 yuan, D store is 6550 yuan => Many people tend to give up 10 minutes and still buy at C store.

The purchase rate of 200 yuan 4G memory sticks is very low for customers -> 4G memory computers cost 4800 yuan while 8G memory computers only cost 5000 yuan.

Using the exchange method to attract consumers' attention to small items with a large price change ratio will make them feel like they are getting a great deal.

Selling cheap accessories together with an expensive item can make consumers feel more value than selling them separately.

Getting happiness doesn't actually relieve the pain of loss.

The old man drives the children playing on the public lawn away, first giving 10 yuan, then 5 yuan and finally 1 yuan => Although the child can get 1 yuan, the pain of losing 9 yuan is far greater than the joy of getting 10 yuan.

The furniture mall charges a 20 yuan delivery fee, which may trigger the loss aversion mentality of consumers -> If you don't need delivery, you can save 20 yuan.

Consumers worry about what to do if the furniture is broken when buying it -> Provide a 7-day return and exchange policy without reason.

Consumers love to buy your sofa, but they already have one at home. -> Trade-in for a new one, with XX yuan discount for the old sofa, which is more tempting for customers.

The way of exchanging (trading in old for new) is more attractive to customers than the way of discounts.

Replace the lost expression framework with the acquired one.

Consumers will use two principles to judge whether the product price is appropriate when they are not sure about the price -> avoid extremes and weigh against each other.

When staying at a hotel for a business trip, choosing the online payment plan => 80 yuan per hour and 105 yuan for the whole day, most people choose the latter, because 105 yuan is a good deal, while 80 yuan is the price anchor.

Two water purifiers, 1399 yuan and 2288 yuan => Everyone will buy the 1399 one, while the 2288 wants to increase sales, it's best to have another 4399 one.

A 600 yuan physical examination product => If you compare it from the side, spending 6000 yuan to maintain a car but not willing to spend 600 to maintain yourself may be more effective.

The principle of guiding purchases: avoid extremes -> When there are three or more choices, most people tend to choose the middle one.

The second principle of guiding purchases: weighing and comparing -> When customers have no way to judge the value, they will choose a product they think is similar to compare, so that they have a standard to measure by.

Consumers don't pay for the cost of goods, but for the perceived value of the goods. The logic of price anchoring is to give consumers a comparable price perception.
