As demographic factors, why are marketers interested in the education level, occupation, and income of consumers?

On Jun 13, 2024


Studies show that higher levels of education lead to better jobs and higher incomes. For some products, marketers can combine education level with other data such as occupation and income and obtain pretty accurate predictions of purchase behavior. For instance, a full-time college student with a part-time job may have relatively little personal income but will spend his or her disposable dollars differently than would a high school graduate who works in a factory and earns a similar income. Marketers need to be quite cognizant of the interaction among education, income, and occupation.
