The empirical study was carried out at Çankaya, Atılım and Ankara Universities in Ankara with the participation of 334 female college students. The data were obtained by means of a survey. In the survey, the marketing mix as product, place, promotion and price was examined in its relationships with respect to factors such as income, life style, residence, experience with similar products, product purchase and use, information channels of technological products for knowledge and purchasing, priorities of spending, price perception, market place and past experience.
