Nounconsumers
From Wiktionary under the GNU Free Documentation License. Consumer is a broad label for any individuals or households that use goods and services generated within the economy. The concept of a consumer occurs in different contexts, so that the usage and significance of the term may vary. In economics and marketingTypically when business people and economists talk of consumers they are talking about person as consumer, an aggregated commodity item with little individuality other than that expressed in the buy/not-buy decision. However there is a trend in marketing to individualize the concept. Instead of generating broad demographic profiles and psycho-graphic profiles of market segments, marketers have started to engage in personalized marketing, permission marketing, and mass customization. There is increasing backlash from the public over use of the label "consumer" rather than "customer", with many finding it offensive and derogatory. The consumer is the backbone of the American Retail Sales System (See picture). The consumer drives the economy by purchasing goods and services from vendors. From Wikipedia under the
GNU Free Documentation License How much do American consumers spend compared to the world? Q. I am a new investor and am curious as to how much americans spend compared to the world. I was looking at a U.K. company that is one of their largest retailers and a U.S. company that is one of the largest also. This U.K. company has stores in other parts of the world. Although they have about 2/3 less stores than the U.S. company they make significantly less but I believe part of the reason could be because American consumers spend more. This U.K. store is planning to expand into the U.S. and i am considering buying shares.

Q. Woudn't it help our economy if consumers were to start spending more money instead of saving it? Wouldn't that give the economy a boost. Asked by dp - Sun Feb 8 19:53:25 2009 - - 3 Answers - 0 Comments A. You are absolutely correct. It is painful to listen to these consumer advisers who offer tips on saving money. Such as where to go online to save 15 percent on the airline ticket, pick the cheapest hotel, rent the cheapest auto. School teachers are comical in their frugality and concurrent complaints that they are underpaid. I expect to see visiting New York or Paris and taking a lunch in bag. Answer: offer to pay a price that includes a profit is what any economy requires to be vibrant. The "bargain hunter" crowd are just maximizing their goofy advice during a recessionary downturn.
