I'm going with E) internal. Seems like the good old-fashioned 'think about what I already know' approach. Although, if I had a photographic memory, maybe A) external would be the way to go. Alas, my brain is more like a sieve these days.

I prefer E) internal as well. It's easier to recall information from past experiences.

I think I would go with A) external if I had a better memory, but E) internal works for me too.

Yeah, I agree. It's always good to start with what you already have in your memory.

I'm not sure, but I think it could also be D) generic, as the buyer may also consider general information about the product.

I agree with Francesco, because in an internal search, the buyer relies on their own memory and knowledge.

Hmm, I was going to say B) perceived, but I guess that's more about how the buyer perceives the information, not where they're getting it from. E) internal seems like the way to go.

That's true, it's all about using what you already have to gather information.

I think E) internal makes sense, it's all about what the buyer already knows.

I think the correct answer is E) internal. It makes the most sense to search your own memory and knowledge for information about a product or service.
