Measuring Mobile Telecom Service Innovativeness Among Youth

Consumer innovativeness is highly acknowledged by marketers for successful diffusion of innovation with the aim to make business more profitable and competitive. The present study has been conducted to measure mobile telecom service innovativeness among youth. The constructs related to consumer behaviour such as product involvement, opinion leadership, need for uniqueness, venturesomeness and price insensitivity have been included in the study as factors influencing consumer innovativeness. Youth with existing mobile telecom services have been considered as the target population and a non-probabilistic sampling technique has been used to collect samples. Univariate and bivariate analyses have been used for making statistical inferences about population. The results of the study categorized youth as consumer innovators with significant product involvement and opinion leadership for mobile telecom services and also revealed that product involvement and price insensitivity are positively associated with mobile telecom service innovativeness. The research also offers a discussion about implications of diffusion of innovation for mobile telecom services on the basis of consumer innovativeness and related constructs.
