Consumer Decision Making
TeamSportsMarketing.com
Doing Business Online Research minor and major league team websites
of your choosing. Identify WebPages that illustrate either positive
or negative examples for one of the checkpoints for each of the stages in the decision-making process for online shoppers (Table 11.1). Take screenshots of pages (hit <alt> and <print screen> and
then copy/paste to document) to demonstrate digitally (ppt’s) For each checkpoint illustrated, note what is good
or bad about the way the team has designed the website.
The following slides offer examples of what you might find.
Stage 1: Need Recognition: Provide product-related appetizers such as sales items, hot products, or product recommendation. www.MLB.com prominently features product specials on the league homepage.
Stage 2: Information
Search: provide its own product
search function.--The product
search function is easy to find at top
of the www.nflshop.com
page.
Stage 3: Information Evaluation: --Provide help or info to assist customers in evaluating alternatives.--Provide links to locations that have endorsements from other customers. Limited product info & no endorsements on the ECHL website.
--Have pictures that demonstrate true colors of the merchandise. The pictures online do not look like actual pictures of the product. Enlarged pictures do not provide enough detail.
Stage 4: Purchase Decision
--Have a mechanism for customers to
track their orders.The
www.shopnhl.com website for each
team provides clear directions on how to
track customer orders.
Stage 5: Post-purchase Behavior--Provide online support or other means of communicationThe www.fwcatsstore.com shop only provides an email submission (with no direct email & no phone number). No information is provided about other retail outlets. If they don’t exist, then online store should promote “only available online.”--Provide money back guarantee (stage 4, but also influences stage 5)The return policy is restricted, placing a significant burden on the customer (tags attached, correct packaging, customer pays shipping; receipt copy). Confirmed customer purchase info should be part of database info.
