Abstract

Este estudio se realizó con el fin de establecer cuáles son los criterios que el consumidor tiene en consideración al momento de seleccionar el concesionario para la compra de motocicletas. En este sentido, la recolección de información se hizo teniendo en cuenta únicamente sujetos que hubieran adquirido motocicletas en concesionario. Asumiendo una investigación de tipo cuantitativo, una muestra teórica de 294 individuos y una participación real de 60 individuos seleccionados de forma probabilística, se midió la influencia de diversos factores relacionados con la decisión de compra. Como resultado de esta medición, y en concordancia con la bibliografía consultada, se encontró que uno de los factores que los sujetos encuestados consideraron como más determinantes para elegir en dónde comprar su motocicleta es la influencia de las recomendaciones de terceros, y entre las principales conclusiones a las que se llegó es que los obsequios entregados por la compra no necesariamente aumentan el nivel de ventas, por lo cual, ofrecerlos a aquellos compradores que lleven referidos o invertir en mejorar la calidad del servicio podría ser una buena alternativa para aprovechar los factores más significativos. ****** This study was conducted to establish what are the criteria that the consumer takes into account when selecting the site (licensee) purchase of motorcycles distributed. In this regard, data collection was done considering only subjects who acquired motorcycle dealer. Assuming a quantitative research, a theoretical sample of 294 and a real participation of 60 individuals selected probabilistically, the influence of various factors related to the purchase decision was measured. As a result of this measurement, and consistent with the literature, we found that one of the factors that respondents considered as most crucial subjects to choose where to buy your motorcycle is the influence of the recommendations of others. Among the main conclusions that were reached is that the gifts given by the purchase does not necessarily increase the level of sales, instead offer them to those buyers with referrals or invest in improving the quality of service could be good alternatives to leverage factors rated as the most significant.
