They are also an important influence on other family members' buying habits. Many organizations have identified moms as an important customer group, but the broad, age-based definitions these companies work with mask an array of different consumer behaviors. Written by two leading marketers, this book provides a new approach to understanding the American Mom market, examining the mom's influence on (or control of) the purchasing habits of children of all ages, from infants and toddlers to young adults, and bring focus to the frequently overlooked purchase influence of moms on teenagers. The authors combine large-scale quantitative research of more than 4,700 mothers with qualitative case studies from individual participants. Highly recommended for practitioners in retailing and product development, this book will also be a valuable supplemental text for college courses in consumer behavior and marketing strategy. -- Book Description. 606 $aMothers$zUnited States$xAttitudes 606 $aConsumer behavior$zUnited States 606 $aConsumers' preferences$zUnited States 606 $aRelationship marketing$zUnited States 615 0$aMothers$xAttitudes. 615 0$aConsumer behavior 615 0$aConsumers' preferences 615 0$aRelationship marketing 676 $a306.874/3 700 $aClements$b Michal$f1963-$01653628 701 $aThompson$b Teri Lucie$f1956-$01653629 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910820784503321 996 $aTuning into Mom$94005013 997 $aUNINA
