INFORMATION SEARCH
• Nature of Information Search- Internal Search
Long-term memory search to determine if a satisfactory solution is known.
- External SearchesIf resolution is not achieved through the internal search, then the search process is focused on relevant external information.
• Type of Information Sought1. Appropriate evaluation criteria2. The existence of various alternative3. Performance of each alternative on each criterion evaluative
• Evaluative criteriaOne potential goal of both internal and external search is determining the appropriate evaluation criteria.
• Appropriate alternative1. Which begs the consideration set or the set
contains the brand or product to be evaluated.2. Incompetent set consists of brands found really
worthy of further consideration.3. Contains a lazy consumer brand aware but
basically indifferent to.• Characteristics of alternative1. To choose among brands in the evoked set,
consumers compare them to the relevant evaluative criteria.
2. This process requires the consumer to gather information about each brand in each of the relevant evaluative criteria.
Sources of Information
Five main sources of information available to consumers:
• Memory of the past searches, personal experiences, and low-involvement learning.
• Private sources, such as friends, family, and others.

• Preference strategy– Search locations must be anticipated, e.g.
chemists– POP + sales assistance– Know where they search
Strategies (not in evoked set)• Disrupt strategy
– Attention-seeking ads– Free samples or bonus encouraging trial
• Intercept strategy– Must attract attention– POP display– Product improvements, etc.
• Acceptance strategy– Advertise but don’t ‘sell’ the brand– Encourage consumer to seek information
