Abstract

The marketing mix, commonly known as the 4Ps—Product, Price, Place, and Promotion—serves as a fundamental framework for understanding consumer buying decisions. This literature review synthesizes existing research on the intricate relationship between the marketing mix elements and consumer behaviour. It examines how each component influences purchasing decisions, focusing on key findings and emerging trends across various market contexts. The review highlights the significant impact of product attributes, pricing strategies, distribution channels, and promotional tactics on consumer perceptions and choices. Additionally, it identifies gaps in the current literature, particularly regarding the effects of digital marketing and cultural variations on consumer behaviour. By providing a comprehensive analysis of these dimensions, this review aims to enhance the understanding of how effective marketing strategies can drive purchasing behaviour. Ultimately, the findings underscore the necessity for marketers to adopt a holistic approach that integrates all elements of the marketing mix to optimize consumer engagement and satisfaction.
