Motivators to Buy Luxury—The Drive for Self-Actualization Luxury Tracking Report & Analysis, 2Q2004
The second issue of the Luxury Tracking Service focuses on the role that self-actualization plays in luxury marketing. While luxury consumers buy luxuries for pleasure and enjoyment primarily, their next most important motivation is improving the quality of life
Luxury marketers, therefore, not only need to maximize their customer’s pleasure of the luxuries they offer. They need to maximize the life enhancing qualities of their products and services. They must provide luxury consumers with self-actualizing experiences from consuming and using the product or service
Luxury consumers more positive about financial well-being in 2Q2004

The Luxury Consumption Index measures luxury consumers' feelings and attitudes about their financial well-being.
