Bundling is the practice of selling two or more products together, often at a discounted price. In this article, we extend the concept of bundling to a wide variety of choice settings. We argue that bundle choice covers consumer decision scenarios, which differ with respect to three key dimensions: the number of product categories in the bundle, the party in the distribution system who constructs the bundles, and the time frame of the bundle choice decision.
The Connected Consumer: Connected Devices and the Evolution of Customer Intelligence
Journal of the Association for Consumer ResearchAlan DJ Cooke, Peter P Zubcsek
2017-03-03
Technological advances are increasing the connections between customers and companies, products, and one another. Consumers’ use of connected devices is providing rich sources of data about consumers, their activity, and their environment, which we collectively label customer intelligence. At the same time, changes in statistical algorithms and artificial intelligence are making automated inferences and decisions regarding consumer behavior possible. One likely result of these changes is the emergence of companies that are especially adept at generating and using customer intelligence.
