Abstract

In the past few decades, environmental sustainability issues have helped change consumers’ behavior and consumption patterns. In addition to increasing consumer awareness of environmentally friendly behavior, consumers face two alternatives of consuming environmentally friendly or conventional products. Consumer behavior is closely related to utility theory. During their evaluation process, consumers tend to consume products that provide maximum value or benefit. An empirical phenomenon in emerging markets such as Indonesia shows that the consumption of environmentally friendly products is still much lower than conventional products. Using the utility and prospect theory, this study aims to provide a conceptual framework in enhancing consumer perceived utility of environmentally friendly products through message framing in marketing communications. The use of message framing in marketing communications is one practical way that marketers can do to change consumer preferences and increase consumer perceived utility for environmentally friendly products.
