Whether we realize it or not, our culture, our family, our norms have significant actions on our behaviors. Discuss how your personal culture and family norms have influenced your buying behavior. Give a couple of examples, whether the buying behavior and influence ends up in a positive or negative consumer behavior. For example, my mother always used Tide detergent. Because of this influence on me growing up, I use Tide detergent. Are there better detergents out there? Probably, but because of the familiarity of my mother using Tide, I probably will not try another brand. This next example is really "silly". My dad did not like Chevrolets, at all! Because of the cultural family influence I have never purchased a Chevrolet and now my two daughters have never purchased a Chevrolet. Is there any science or logical reasoning behind the consumer decision? NO....and for all I know Chevrolets could be better than other vehicles. Think of how hard this is for a business or product that is trying to market to you
