While we often think of our purchases as an isolated event, there are in fact a multitude of ways that consumers can influence their purchases. We all know what you buy but what you do with it can be as significant as what you buy.
One of the more interesting things about consumer studies is the effect they have on consumers. For example, if you’re buying a new car, you probably don’t consider the quality of the paint on your car. Not after spending a lot of time researching it. But if you’re buying a new home, you probably consider the paint job on the walls and trim. Not after reading a lot of consumer reports.
That is exactly how I feel. I think it has to do with the fact that a lot of people buy a paint color they think looks nice. But that color may not look very nice. So they have a tendency to buy the best paint, but it might not be the best paint at all.
So, in this case, paint is one of the first things a new home buyer should consider. It’s one of the easiest things you can do to make your home look well-preserved, so you might not even think to do it. But if you can’t afford a professional, you have to just buy the best paint.
I’ve written about paint before. I’ve written about color. I’ve written about color in general. But I’m always on the lookout for new paint. My favorite color for homes these days is yellow. It’s so bright and colorful, it almost feels fluorescent in a way. And it’s one of those colors that really doesn’t seem to have a color name. It’s so bright and colorful, you can actually see it through the glass of a window.
In some markets consumer reports are still in their infancy, but they have a long history, and they tend to find a lot of information on paint colors. If you haven’t already, check out Consumer Reports Magazine.
If you are interested in trying to find a color that will really work for you in your new home, use the color picker at www.colorpal.com.
Well, it’s not that good. But if you can find a color that’s not so bright and colorful, it can be a good complement for your home.
When I go to Consumer Reports, I like to see how many paint colors people use in their homes. Its a very subjective topic, but the information I get from these reports can often be very useful. I have heard from people who had the wrong color paint or paint color in their home, but found a color that they liked after changing the paint. So, the next time you go to paint your new home, go on Consumer Reports and see which colors are popular.
Well, I just read a story about a homeowner who did the wrong color paint. The homeowner had his house painted in a dark red color, but she ended up with a dark red paint that looks like it was applied with a bad sponge. I don’t know which is worse.
