Consumer behavior and economic impact: A comprehensive study of Black Friday shopping trends
Author(s): Anita N Halamata
Abstract: This study examines consumer behavior and the economic impact of Black Friday shopping trends, focusing on purchasing motivations, decision-making pressure, and the shift toward online shopping. Using primary data from 50 respondents, statistical analyses reveal key insights into consumer preferences and retail market dynamics. Findings indicate that 80% of consumers prefer online shopping, primarily driven by convenience (40%) and better deals (30%). While 60% of shoppers feel pressured to make quick purchase decisions, statistical tests suggest this may not be a universal trend. The economic impact is overwhelmingly positive, with 75% of respondents recognizing its benefits for retailers and a strong correlation (r = 0.999) between economic growth and job creation (65%). Correlation analysis further highlights the role of urgency and impulse-driven purchases in enhancing retailer profitability. These insights provide valuable guidance for retailers in optimizing sales strategies, improving digital engagement, and refining promotional efforts to maximize revenue and customer satisfaction.
