All of them make maximum efforts to make the customer satisfied. As a subject of research in the paper, an analysis of consumer behavior was performed, the environmental factors that influence their behavior, as well as the combination of environmental factors that influence the decision to initiate an action, were defined. The aim of the research is to analyze the consumer in the context of the social and sociopolitical dimension, as well as to define the impact of marketing on his behavior. Based on the research, we can conclude that each consumer is an individual for himself, and accordingly expresses and satisfies different wishes and needs.
