Understanding Consumer Behavior in the Digital Age

In the bustling digital age, understanding consumer behaviour has become the holy grail for brands aiming to stay ahead of the curve. It’s no longer just about having a great product; it’s about deeply understanding the digital journey your customers are on, and how they interact with the myriad of digital touchpoints available to them. If you’re not keyed into these behaviours, you’re missing out on invaluable insights that could drive your brand to new heights.

Consumer behaviour in the digital realm is a constantly shifting landscape, driven by the rapid evolution of technology and the ever-changing preferences of consumers. It’s about tapping into where they spend their time online, what content captures their attention, and how they make their purchasing decisions. With the UK market being as diverse and digitally savvy as it is, getting a grip on these behaviours is crucial for any brand looking to make a significant impact.

But here's the thing – understanding digital consumer behaviour isn’t just about collecting data; it’s about interpreting it in a way that allows you to make real-time adjustments to your marketing strategy. It requires a blend of intuition and analytics, of creative thinking and data-driven decisions. The brands that excel are the ones that use these insights to create more personalised, engaging, and effective customer experiences.

However, this is where the urgency comes into play. The digital landscape waits for no one. Trends can come and go in the blink of an eye, and consumer preferences can shift just as quickly. Brands that are slow to adapt, that don’t continuously monitor and analyse consumer behaviour, risk falling behind. It’s not just about keeping up; it’s about staying ahead, predicting trends before they happen, and being ready to pivot at a moment's notice.

In conclusion, understanding consumer behaviour in the digital age is the key to unlocking a more dynamic and responsive marketing strategy. It’s not enough to follow the crowd; you need to know where the crowd is going, what they’re talking about, and what they want, sometimes even before they know themselves. This is the challenge and the opportunity for brands today. Dive deep into the digital behaviours of your consumers, and let those insights shape a marketing strategy that’s not just effective, but truly resonant.

imagine how Mello felt after being the best at Wammy’s for years, the best contender to succeed L, one of the only people there to have ever MET L in person. He knew what he was going to be with his future, his whole LIFE! Then Near turns up. And suddenly this random younger kid is beating him effortlessly, putting in none of the work and dedication that he did, and this person has none of Mello’s flaws, none of his emotions or impulsivity or anything else he was criticised for. All at once the place he was king of was oppressive and cold. He was just another random, nameless Wammy’s kid.

His whole LIFE had been taken from him. Then L dies and he’s told to ‘just get along’ with the person that robbed him unflinchingly of his life’s goal? i understand why he left.

does anyone have reading recommendations that clarify the difference between liberalism and fascism? I’m having trouble distinguishing what is just like normal levels of imperial/colonial violence conducted by a liberal state and what pushes it over the edge into a fascist state. Is fascism simply mature liberalism? Is it liberalism in crisis? Can we only make historical, reactive judgements about what is fascist, which is to say, can we only know if fascism occurred after it has come and gone? I take the general point that calling all liberal states fascist can let them off the hook for types of violence considered normal or “just doing business,” invisibilising the daily violences they conduct as part of the regular maintenance of a liberal capitalist state. People are calling the US fascist for its direct participation in and funding of the genocide in Palestine - a diagnosis I don't disagree with, but if that’s the case, where do you draw the distinction between the US being merely a liberal state with aggressive global imperial ambitions and the US being a fully fascist state? Perhaps more bluntly, what’s the difference between a liberal drone strike and a fascist one? I’m struggling to understand the value of the fascist label, because everything it describes (ultranationalism, a theory of racial and cultural degeneracy/decline, paranoia about an imminent external threat expressed as violence against internal populations deemed to have insufficient loyalty to the country, a turn towards a mythologised tradition of the past, imperial expansion, genocidal projects against minority populations, etc etc) just seems to me like a description of United States in general lol

I love the idea of it being maybe a couple of days after the Captain has died, and he has gotten over the intense initial shock of being dead and the subsequent freak out that follows it, and he has reverted back to just being ‘the Captain’ and trying to make some order of his existence and keep himself busy, and presenting himself to the other ghosts as a ranking officer and their leader, and he has a little speech, and one of the ghosts makes a remark about some weird or wacky thing that they did or do, or suggests something unusual, and Cap is immediately horrified and just exclaims ‘but that’s not proper behaviour!’, and all the other ghosts just scoff a bit or kind of ignore him, but Fanny gives an approving noise and says ‘quite right, Captain!’, and basically them just becoming quite close quite quickly due to their love of rules and order and ‘proper’ behaviour.

Just Fanny finally finding another ghost who understands her and agrees with her and her constant adherence to the strict rules she was forced to follow when she was alive, and the Captain finding in Fanny a person who understands and appreciates his need to maintain his status as Captain and find a sense of order within the madness.

Was thinking a bit deeper on @deadendtracks query https://www.tumblr.com/divinekangaroo/740003125539307520/i-clipped-this-from-your-post-because-its-easier?source=share

Snipped for sex talk, and also to spare any disinterested parties my naiveity on complex matters such as: subaltern/Orientalism/exoticism/Othering/ethnic talk etc

In hindsight I think I answered that query as a ‘possible authorial intent’ - speculatively, to subvert the usual gangster trope by displaying macho-ish behaviours (sex! whores!) but flipping motivation and outcome.

But there's also something else that's been churning away at the back of my head, the term subaltern. "the most powerless people living within the socio-economic confines of imperialism" -- and this imperialist overlay that often assigns the devious, deviant, dark, scheming/conniving/machavellian/feminine characteristics to the subaltern man, too, because it is exotic.

I haven't properly structured an argument around this; I feel a lot of T's approach to sex has that almost woman-coded thing to it, as signifiers of an even-further-disadvantaged man. It nags at me and feels that this also ties into this subaltern, semi-'Orientalist' / exotic layer he has as 'lower than the lowest class' / 'actually so low class he's outside of class' Romani character -> less of a stereotype, more of a conscious consideration of "if you have nothing, you will use everything you can, and sometimes that includes your own body, and guess what here's the bind: that kinda puts you even *lower* in the hierarchy, because women are lower than men and only women use their bodies that way!"

Gut instinct, barely unpacked: there's an imperialist/cultural/ethnic trauma that feels like it can't be detached from Tommy's sexuality/approach to sex any more than the hints of childhood trauma or abuse can be, either. Especially when you consider childhood as his closest time still connected to the living Romani culture, as opposed to by the time we see him on screen when his interactions with his culture are static and based on childhood/broken memories. I was initially put off by the Romani layer because it felt like a stereotype - gangs followed ethnic lines so let's just apply an ethnicity that's ~exotic~ - but the later series re-frame the earlier approach into something that shows it was almost never intended to be a representation of the culture but rather, more like Tommy's particular (distorted, damaged) view.

----

But then also answering the personal side of the question RE: Tommy's character. What does it mean for a person/individual to be so transactional and detached from sex yet participatory towards it?

This gets a little more headcanon-y:

T started having sex or being sexualised (seeing/experiencing sex) really young in a less than affectionate way - more like, here is a thing that must be done for some other action to happen (or be diverted).

Because of this, I can’t ever see him permitting himself to perform that ‘hungry to totally surrender his control and desires to someone else’ role so frequently given to him in fanon. What happened with Tatiana was an exception, not a rule. It’s nice to read for various reasons, but I'm unlikely to personally lean into this take. Not to say he's dominating or must be fully in control during sex, either, just that I think he'd avoid leaning into surrender because it'd be like losing total control of a transaction and becoming far too vulnerable.

Despite that I do feel he has an urge for connection/intimacy, I think he struggles with actually connecting deeply with people, reading sexual cues/flirtation or the like. In some ways, he connects too deeply and therefore holds back? I did have thoughts along the asexual line. He likes certain people, and he mostly enjoys the physical act of sex, and these two things can overlap to ‘I would like sex with this certain person’, but there’s a big gap between the two. Deep connection is unrelated to sex. Can't read flirt cues to the point he leapfrogs straight to the 'do you want to fuck?' almost as an abstraction because he can never decode the in-between steps?

Notwithstanding any deep connection, sex is still considered/framed as duty and obligation. His approach with Lizzie in S6 as case in point; he is conscious of his role and considers it a thing that must be performed to satisfy that role. Even S5, it feels like a 'seal the deal' sex exchange; he knows she likes it, she just told him so and that it's important to her, so all right, he's going to let loose.

This difficulty with 'is this connection? not sure?' is one reason why I think he is mostly about family (he can take connection for granted and has had a really really long time to build it). He also has a surprisingly large *respectful* but superficial network (he knows the right behaviours but rarely gets personal), very few close friends (honestly is this just Alfie? Maybe, once, Freddie and Barney? even Johnny Dogs and Uncle Charlie are subordinate). Which lends itself very effectively to leadership, to be honest, but also loneliness: again it feels like he's performing connection.

I really struggle with picturing him feeling much physical attraction without consciously focusing on it. He seems to spark for people (or maybe situations/dynamics - classy women?) not their physical, and when I’m in headcanon mode, it’s familiarity that builds his fondness for certain aspects of a person's physicality, rather than their physicality attracting him initially. So either he wants sex (release) and it's not really relevant who with, or he wants the person and sex is acceptable/better with that person. And there's a conscious switch in his head like, "ok now paying attention to physical attraction because must have sex" or "switch it off not important right now"

Consumer Loyalty in the Digital Marketplace Insights and Strategies

In the bustling digital marketplace, fostering consumer loyalty is akin to striking gold. It's no secret that acquiring a new customer can cost five times more than retaining an existing one. Yet, in the fast-paced, ever-evolving digital realm, securing customer loyalty requires more than just a quality product or service. It demands a deep understanding of consumer behaviour, tailored experiences, and, crucially, an ability to engage on a personal level. For brands looking to thrive, not just survive, nailing this balance is non-negotiable.

The digital age has transformed consumer expectations. Today's shoppers are savvy, informed, and, let's face it, a tad impatient. They demand convenience, value, and, above all, a seamless experience. Loyalty is no longer just about who offers the best price; it's about who makes shopping easy, enjoyable, and, importantly, personalised. In the UK's competitive market, understanding these shifting dynamics is key. Brands that adapt, offering a curated, frictionless shopping experience, are the ones that will keep customers coming back for more.

But here's the rub: in the digital world, personalisation is the name of the game. It's about recognising your customers as individuals, with unique preferences, needs, and desires. Leveraging data analytics to tailor marketing messages, recommend products, and even predict future purchases can make all the difference. It turns a transaction into an experience, and an experience into loyalty. If your brand isn't utilising data to personalise at every touchpoint, you're missing a trick, and crucially, risking being left behind.

Engagement is another critical piece of the puzzle. In the digital age, this means more than just responsive customer service. It's about creating a community around your brand, engaging customers through social media, blogs, and other digital platforms. It's about telling a story that resonates, creating content that adds value, and fostering a sense of belonging among your customer base. This level of engagement not only drives loyalty but turns satisfied customers into vocal advocates for your brand.

In conclusion, cultivating consumer loyalty in the digital marketplace is both an art and a science. It requires a blend of strategic insight, technological savvy, and, fundamentally, a commitment to understanding and meeting the evolving needs of your customers. The brands that get this right, those that offer personalised, engaging experiences that resonate on a personal level, are the ones that will not just attract customers, but keep them. In the race for loyalty, there's no time for complacency. The digital marketplace waits for no one, and the time to act is now.

i really hate that when backed into a corner the people who engage in transmisogynistic harassment campaigns retreat into "wowwwww, you're saying we can never be critical of kink, you're saying we can never be critical or analytical of kink and just because it's sexual it's magically immune to criticism????" because like. they're not being critical of kink. they're not analyzing shit. nobody getting called transmisogynistic is like, writing up profound thinkpieces critically analyzing the cultural dynamics and historical context of daddy kinks or whatever. they're just like reacting with base disgust responses and harassing random individual trans women because of their real or assumed private sexual behaviours -- that's not 'criticising', that's not 'analysis', and it's so fucking cynical and pathetic when they put up the flimsy motte-and-bailey that it is

The Consumer Has Evolved – What about Knowledge of their Consumer Behavior?

Digitalization has transformed the way our world works, and the retail industry is not far behind. The impact of the transformation can be seen in the dramatic evolution of the way consumers shop, consumer behaviour and make purchasing decisions. With e-commerce, social media, and extensive use of mobile devices, consumers today have more access to information and choices than ever before. In India, this evolution of the consumer has been particularly pronounced, with the country’s e-commerce market expected to reach $200 billion by 2026.

In this scenario, understanding the changing consumer landscape and evolving consumer expectations has become a non-negotiable for businesses. With multiple digital touchpoints generating volumes of consumer data, one of the ways you can address this issue is by leveraging big data analytics to gain insights into consumer behavior and preferences. These insights can help retailers to gain a deeper understanding of their customers and tailor their marketing and sales strategies accordingly.

There are various ways in which retailers can use big data to their advantage. As a retailer, you can:

Use big data analytics to track customer browsing and purchase history and personalize your marketing efforts to specific segments of customers. Such customization has a direct positive impact on customer loyalty and sales.

Utilize customer analytics to optimize your inventory management, pricing strategies, and store layouts to improve the in-store experience for customers, pointing them to relevant recommendations, following trends and patterns, and thereby increasing sales.

Stay ahead of the curve by understanding the role of digital technology in consumers’ lives. With the growing use of mobile devices and social media in India, you need to ensure that your websites and mobile apps are user-friendly, quick to load, and easy to navigate. Additionally, you can use social media platforms to engage with customers, build brand awareness, and gather customer feedback for learning and improvement.

Become aware of the importance of data privacy and security. With the increasing use of big data analytics, you must ensure that you are collecting and using consumer data in a way that is compliant with local regulations and protects consumer privacy.

How Knowing Your Customer can Impact the Bottom Line?

Utilizing big data for customer profiling can play a significant role in creating an impact on the bottom line. By analyzing data from the various digital touchpoints, you can gain a deeper understanding of your customers, including demographics, purchase history, browsing behavior, and sentiment. 

Personalized product recommendations: You can use big data to recommend personalized products leading to increased sales and better customer loyalty.

Targeted marketing campaigns: You can use big data for customer segmentation and create targeted marketing campaigns for specific segments of customers. This will increase the effectiveness of marketing efforts and lead to higher conversions

Inventory management: Your retail business can use big data to analyze customer expenditure behavior and predict their demand for certain products helping you to optimize your inventory management and reduce costs.

Price optimization: Analyzing customer purchase trends and browsing behavior to optimize prices for certain products can increase sales and profitability.

Customized discounts: Based on customer habits and history, big data can help you customize offers for them leading to better sales and higher customer loyalty.

Customer service: Big data analytics on customer feedback and sentiment can help you identify areas for improvement in customer service. Efforts in this area will improve customer satisfaction.

Fraud detection: You can also use big data to detect fraudulent activity, thus reducing losses and protecting your customers.

Store layout optimization: Customer behavior analytics can help you optimize the layout of your stores, making shopping a more personalized experience with relevant recommendations for them.

With such benefits, it is evident why customer profiling is finding increased usage in the retail segment. According to a study by Deloitte, Indian retailers are expected to invest heavily in data analytics and big data to gain insights into customer behavior, optimize pricing, and improve inventory management.

Increasingly, retail store chains across the country are using big data to gain insights into customer behavior and preferences to create detailed customer profiles. Analyzing this data gives them access to patterns such as which products are most popular, what types of customers are most likely to purchase certain products, and which customers are most likely to return products. With this information, retailers can tailor their offerings to meet the specific needs and preferences of customers. In such scenarios, tools that allow retailers to process large amounts of customer data in real-time have gained popularity by enabling retailers to swiftly identify trends and patterns, and respond to changes in customer behavior with immediate effect.
