There are two types of consumers in business studies. The first are the domestic consumers and the second are industrial consumers. Since you haven't specifically mentioned, I suppose you mean Consumers as Domestic Consumers and Industrial Market as the other type of consumers. Domestic Consumers are consumers of day to day goods whereas Industrial market refers to Industries as consumers of goods. All the strategies are different for both these types of consumers as they represent two different segments of the market. Even the products are different or are in different quantities.
