Brand Preference Steering Consumer CE Purchase Decisions

New Parks Associates research shows the importance of brand preference in consumer electronics purchase decisions, revealing that 71 per cent of buyers last year considered only one brand when making their purchase.

Parks, which looked at the purchase habits of US broadband households, found that price and product quality are important factors, with 15 per cent of buyers considering only one brand due to price and 10 per cent due to product quality, however the brand itself was the dominant factor in such purchases.
