抄録: In the marketing literatures there are several theories for describing the behavior of consumers in their decision. Assael distinguished four types of consumers’ buying behavior based on the degree of buyer involvement and the degree of differences among brands, 1)Complex buying behavior, 2)Dissonance-Reducing Buyer Behavior, 3)Habitual Buying Behavior, and 4)Variety-Seeking Buying Behavior. According to Assael, the latter two types of behavior can be seen when the degree of buyer involvement is low. In this paper, we try to build a model for analyzing product penetration based on the consumers’ buying behavior in low buyer involvement situation. Especially, we will focus on word-of-mouth (WOM) effect in penetration process of new product. Based on the computer simulation, the following results are derived. 1) Without WOM interaction, the penetration of new product happens. It’s independent of the ratio of variety-seekers. 2) With WOM, the penetration of new product requires the existence of variety-seeker, however the ratio of variety seeker about 5-10 % are enough to cause stable penetration. 3) Even a little WOM interaction can cause the turbulence of product share transition. In low buyer involvement situation, the rules of consumer agents can be described as a rather simple one. Even though each consumer’s rule is simple, the market as a whole can be complex because there is an interaction between consumers.
