dc.titleLast day indulgence : the impact of temporal landmarks on product preferenceen_US
dcterms.abstractThis research investigates how (start vs. end) temporal landmarks affect consumers’ preference for (utilitarian vs. hedonic) products. Nine studies reveal that start (vs. end) temporal landmarks trigger a process-focused (vs. outcome-focused) mindset which in turn increases consumers’ preference for utilitarian (vs. hedonic) products. Consistent with the proposed process/outcome orientation mechanism, this effect diminishes when the products are pre-ordered. This research reveals a novel downstream consequence of temporal landmark on product preference and provides important practical implications concerning marketing strategies of when and what to promote to the customers.en_US
