The numerous product enhancements are designed to make consumers’ lives easier, better, more convenient and more enjoyable – leading to purchase of products which I didn't even know I wanted.
When a consumer walks through an isle or glances at a shop’s well stocked shelf, he notices products which address a need state which did not seem to exist a while back.
This need state and hence the desire to use is enhanced in any of the many “experiential hooks”.
A consumer is far more likely to pick up a pack of skin lotion, if he/she is demonstrated how it works on his/her skin type, rather than purely based on a recall of a print ad with a supermodel.
Products which address specific need states of a specific niche of shoppers tend to create tribes of users and are able to benefit in a big way by creating positive referrals amongst the TG. However, the interesting aspect is that the shoppers evolves and switches between tribes on a fairly regular basis.
These new and enhanced needs and wants lead to a lot more experimentations and hence an increased amount of impulse buying.
