Strategies to Put the Trend of "Mobile Moments" in the Us Consumers' Mind Ann-christine Bischoff

Seminar paper from the year 2013 in the subject Business economics - Marketing, Corporate Communication, CRM, Market Research, Social Media, grade: 1,0, The ESC Rennes School of Business, course: International Consumer Behaviour, language: English, abstract: As Steve Jobs used to say: "It isn't the consumers' job to know what they want." Referring to this famous quote, this report examined how the upcoming trend can be implemented in the US con- sumers mind, so that the consumer behaviour is sustainably changed. In order to give advice the report follows three mayor steps. First the cultural framework of the United States was briefly analysed by help of Hofstedes five dimensions model. Second was a short study of the trend itself and the mayor aspects, which are important for an implementation of the trend. Last step was adaptation of the US consumers' behav- iour to the trend in order to detect the key factors a company should cover with their product. ??Based on this set of action were developed and recommendations for companies evolved.
