II. Analysis of factors for the strength of high-end soft pack cigarettes

1. Complex and subtle consumer psychology

consumer psychology is currently playing an increasingly important role in enterprises' scientific brand management and accurate market positioning, and its impact on the brand and market is often obvious complexity and uncertainty. In terms of the consumption motivation of soft pack cigarettes, it is also very subtle, which generally includes three factors:

(1) synergistic effect

soft pack "Zhonghua" cigarettes have been selling well in the market since the beginning of the world. It is a popular brand in the high-end cigarette market, with a market price of up to 700 yuan. It is still often out of stock on holidays. At the beginning of the period, "Zhonghua" was only a high-level entertainment cigarette, a symbol of identity and status. Later, with the improvement of people's living standards, Guoyan "Zhonghua" has begun to enter the homes of ordinary people, especially in Jiangsu and Zhejiang regions. It has become the first choice for family banquets and merchants to welcome and send cigarettes. In particular, the strength of soft pack "Zhonghua" cigarettes in recent years has become a highlight of the market, and its market price is far higher than that of hard pack "Zhonghua" by nearly 200 yuan

driven by this exemplary role of the market, the synergistic effect is very obvious, and high-end soft pack cigarettes are competing to follow suit. Those consumers who have a little difficulty in bearing the price of soft "Zhonghua" can experience the unique feeling like "National Tobacco" in the process of smoking other high-end soft packs, and meet the subtle psychology of this part of consumers, which makes it possible for the market to recognize and strengthen

(2) spiritual consumption

Maslow's demand pyramid theory shows that demand presents a certain order. Only when the low-level demand is satisfied to a certain extent, the high-level demand will become an incentive factor. At present, the development of cigarette brands is also evolving along the path of "functionality symbolic experience", from paying attention to the use value of cigarettes themselves, meeting physiological and safety needs, to pursuing emotion, identity and respect, and then focusing on "showing yourself to others through the brand", so as to obtain a kind of psychological warm and beautiful memory, feelings and reverie, rather than being limited to the traditional understanding of taste, appearance, price Style requirements. Soft pack high-end cigarettes, it is to seize this point, most of them soft and solemn, introverted and implicit, magnanimous without losing elegance, noble without publicity. "The heart takes off with the brand", which conveys the message of success, confidence and dignity to consumers. At the same time, it gives consumers a good impression that soft pack cigarettes put more investment and energy into the improvement of internal quality, which also meets the psychological thoughts of consumers in terms of quality price ratio

(3) return to consumption

cigarettes are a kind of habitual consumer goods. Once recognized by consumers, they generally will not change and show relative stability. However, modern consumption shows a trend of diversification, and the psychological needs of consumption are in a wavy state. Cigarette consumption also has the possibility of return and rotation. Modern cigarette packaging adopts soft package design, which makes full use of the "reverse regression" effect to adapt to consumers' psychology of returning to nature. Coarse grain and wild vegetables have become green food on the table instead of large meat and refined grain; Coarse cotton clothes have become everyone's favorite over chemical fiber fabrics.
