on a cognitive level are influenced significantly by the brand image and its awareness amongst
the target market. Research also provides that brands that have a higher level of associated
brand image and awareness amongst the consumer are likely to be purchased again and again
by consumers. (Hoyer, Wayne, D., & Steven P. Brown,1990).
 Therefore specifically for inducing repeat purchase behavior in the consumers, brand awareness
can be considered as a significant contributor Macdonald, Emma, K.,& Byron M. Sharp,2000).

packaging have tremendous influences on consumer purchasing behaviour. (SOP 3)
 Consumer’s cosmetic consumption depends on different attributes like Price, Quality, Brand
name, Brand loyalty and Labeling. All these attributes now become a new trend in the
market. Currently, people are falling for quality, branded and cheap priced products. Early
day’s price was the only factor in the mindset of people. But now, all these factors have a
major role in dominating the market.
 Through this study, it was identified that the five factors, quality product, product price,
brand name, product packaging and advertising have greater impact on customer buying
decision. Consumers go through the rigorous thought processing making their buying
decisions, since there are alternative products which compete in the areas close proximity,
relatively cheaper price, quality, etc. Brand, Quality and price are one among the strong
competing factors in the decision making process. When it comes to beauty products, it is
even more intense that all the five factors play a major role in consumer buying decision.

factors which are responsible for building a brand loyalty. This researcher has reported that excellent

loyalty programme. Besides this, cosmetic manufactures are required to understand thoroughly the
buying behavior before implementing any marketing strategy. (SOP3)

New products can increase awareness in the marketplace amongst consumers through a number of
different strategies employing new as well as traditional media. Traditional media based advertising and
promotions using ATL techniques have the widest reach in the market but can be expensive to manage
for new products. As a result new BTL launch techniques,(Salcido T.,2011), are innovatively employed by
businesses to introduce new brands into the marketplace in a more personal way in which consumers in
the market can relate to the new brands more effectively while reducing the overall costs incurred.
Popular new media strategies that are being employed by businesses include using internet and mobile
based network marketing strategies. (Jenkins, H., 2006). (SOP4)
