From eyeballs to footfalls-the human psyche has taken a complete downward journey in the last five years. If it was eyeballs (number of visits to websites) during the dotcom boom of 2000, now it is footfalls (number of visitors to malls). The study of consumer behavior focuses on how individuals make decisions to spend their available resources (time, money, effort) on consumption-related items. The field of consumer behavior covers a lot of ground. Buyer behaviour is deeply rooted in psychology with dashes of sociology thrown in just to make things more interesting. Since every person in the world is different, it is impossible to have simple rules that explain how buying decisions are made. But those who have spent many years analysing customer activity have presented us with useful “guidelines” in how someone decides whether or not to make a purchase. The paper focuses on the awareness level of consumers regarding their buying behaviour in shopping malls and their level of satisfaction in this regard.
