Your task
Individually, you are required to create a 7 to 8-minute video, in which you must discuss and critically
analyse your recent purchase of a product or service based on the 5-step Consumer Decision
Making Process. Please note that you will need to use the same product or service in the
second and third assessment in this subject as all assignments in this course are
interrelated. In addition to this, products or services by market leaders, such as Apple,
Samsung, Nike, and the likes should not be used.
Assessment Description.
In this individual assignment, you will be given an opportunity to explore contemporary marketing
issues related to consumer behaviour by demonstrating an understanding of the theories and
concepts learned in weeks 1 to 4.
Assessment Instructions
Before making a choice, please conduct preliminary research first to determine the availability of
information. If you find that the number of sources about your chosen product or service is limited,
please consult your workshop facilitator to discuss an alternative option.
By the end of week 2 you are required to provide a brief description of the chosen product or service
that you will be analysing in assessment 1, assessment 2, and assessment 3 to your workshop
facilitator via MyKBS, under ‘assessments tab’ > ‘Product/Service Verification’ icon. In providing a
brief description, you are required to include reasons why you chose this product/service. This
validation step is worth 5% of your grade for this assessment, and you will not be able to submit the
video until your workshop facilitator has approved your choice, so be wise and don’t be late.
Once your workshop facilitator has validated your choice of product or service, you are required to
record a narration of each of the steps of the Consumer Decision Making Process on video and
provide the viewer with an in-depth critical analysis of how you have moved through each of the
steps with the use of complementary visual aids.
In your video analysis, you need to explain and demonstrate the steps, along with your identification
of any possible issues that occurred during this process. The findings presented in the video must
be based on primary research and can be reinforced by analysis of relevant secondary data. In

addition to this, your analysis must incorporate theories and concepts related to consumer behaviour
discussed in the topics from weeks 1 to 4. More specifically:
1. Identify and analyse the need and want that led you to the purchase of the chosen product or
service.
2. Identify and examine the internal and external sources of information that you used in making
your decision to buy the chosen product or service.
3. Evaluate alternatives and narrow down the attributes of the chosen product or service that
satisfy your need and want.
4. Identify and analyse available purchase methods to determine how these methods impacted
on your decision-making process.
5. Analyse your post-purchase behaviour by identifying the features of the chosen product or
service that reduce cognitive dissonance. Please note that in this step, the topic of
customer satisfaction should not be considered.
6. Provide a screenshot of a receipt to validate the purchase of your chosen product or service.
If a receipt is not available, then you must include a photo of you using the product or
experiencing the service.
You are required to use at least 6 sources of information and reference these in accordance
with the Kaplan Harvard Referencing Style. These may include websites, government
publications, industry reports, census data, journal articles, and newspaper articles. These
references should be presented as a reference list at the end of your video.
