What are the primary differences between an ultimate consumer and an organizational buyer? Select one product and explain the differences in either its use or purchase, depending on whether it was purchased by an ultimate consumer or an organizational buyer.

What will be an ideal response?


Students' examples will differ, but each example should be descriptive of the definition. Ultimate consumers are the people who use the products and services purchased for a household. For example, a flat screen high definition television could be purchased by any member of a family and used by all for personal enjoyment. Organizational buyers are those manufacturers, wholesalers, retailers, and government agencies that buy products and services for their own use or for resale. A hospital might buy the same television model (most likely in larger quantities) for use in patients' rooms to add value by enhancing their hospital stays.
