  7. Business Buying Behaviour • Business buying behavior is initiated when an aroused need is recognised. Importance: Top managers in most companies have come to realize that the buying decisions their organzations make are an important part of overall strategy. Securing the right products at right time for the right price can play a major role in a firms performance for at least three reasons

  8. 1.Companies are making less & buying more: For eg: Toyota annually buys $15 billion worth of parts,materials,& services from hundred of U.S suppliers for use in its production both in U.S & overseas When outside suppliers become this significant,buying becomes a prime strategic issue.

  9. 2.Firms are under intense quality & time pressures: • To reduce reworking costs & improve efficiency,firms cannot tolerate defective parts & supplies. • As a result ,price is only one of several decision criteria used in selecting vendors.

  10. 3.Firms are concentrating their purchases: • To get what they need,companies are dealing with fewer suppliers but are developing long term”partnering”relationship with them.

  11. Buying Decision process in business: • The buying decision process in business markets is a sequence of five steps: • NEED RECOGNITION • IDENTIFICATION OF ALTERNATIVES • EVALUATION OF ALTERNATIVES • PURCHASE DECISION • POST PURCHASE BEHAVIOR
