  • 筆電材質設計對台灣消費者行為之影響


    In Taiwan, the laptop market is much matured with fierce price competition. It seems the most important differentiation features of laptop industry are brand, price band and laptop design and look. Therefore, the objective of the research is to find out the most important feature to affect consumer purchase behavior. Also, regarding to laptop design, company always has limited resource to make the best product design decision. Hence, I will try to find the best laptop material combination. I will adopt perceptual map, conjoint analysis and run market simulation from research results to understand consumer preference regarding to above features. Indeed, the perceptual map shown Apple and Sony are ranked as top 2 preferred brands with premium design, innovation, quality and performance. Furthermore, according to the conjoint result, brand is the most important feature and consumer prefer low price band between NTD$18,000~$24,000. However, it shows inverse relationship between brand preference and Taiwan market brand distribution. This is due to laptop brands distinction is not strong enough while compared with good price laptop offered in the market. Therefore, I conclude price band is actually the most important features to affect Taiwanese consumer purchase behavior. Further, consumers prefer pure Metal laptop and they care more about A cover (lid cover) material design than C cover. Therefore, I will suggest the best product design is the A cover with Metal and C cover with Plastics which could help company to gain incremental market share based on market simulation results.
