Prepared By:
Prof. Nishant Agrawal
CHAPTER OUTLINE
• WHAT IS MARKET SEGMENTATION?
• BASES FOR SEGMENTATION
• CRITERIA FOR EFFECTIVE TARGETING OF SEGMENTS
• IMPLEMENTING SEGMENTATION STRATEGIES
MARKET SEGMENTATION
THE PROCESS OF
DIVIDING A POTENTIAL
MARKET INTO
DIFFERENT SUBSETS
OF CONSUMERS AND
SELECTING ONE OR
MORE SEGMENTS AS A
TARGET MARKET TO BE
REACHED WITH A
DIFFERENT MARKETING
THREE PHASES OF MARKETING
STRATEGY
Phase 2
Target Market and Marketing Mix Selection
Phase 3
Product/Brand Positioning
Phase 1
Market Segmentation
SEGMENTATION STUDIES
• DISCOVER THE NEEDS AND WANTS OF

NEEDS
• USED TO IDENTIFY THE MOST APPROPRIATE
MEDIA FOR ADVERTISING
RYKA
PRODUCES
SNEAKERS
THAT MEET
THE SPECIAL
NEEDS OF
WOMEN’S
FEET.
DISCUSSION QUESTION
• CONSIDERING THE LARGEST BANK IN YOUR
COLLEGE’S CITY OR TOWN:
• HOW MIGHT CONSUMERS’ NEEDS DIFFER?
• WHAT TYPES OF PRODUCTS / SERVICE MIGHT MEET
THEIR NEEDS?
BASES FOR SEGMENTATION
Personal Feature Purchase Behaviors
•Demographic, age, gender, marital
status, family life cycle. Income,
education, occupation, social class
•Geographic location, address
•Usage Rate
•Usage Situation
•Brand Loyalty
•Psychographics factual behaviors
Personality , lifestyles and socio

•Personality traits
•Lifestyle, VALS
•socio culture value
Attitude and preferences regarding
the product
•Benefits wanted
•Level of involvement
•Awareness of product alternatives
•Brand loyalty
Consumer Rooted Consumption Specific
Facts
Cognitions
BASES FOR SEGMENTATION
• FACTS: WHICH CAN BE DETERMINE FROM DIRECT
QUESTIONING AND CATEGORIZED BY SINGLE
OBJECTIVE MEASURE
• COGNITIONS: WHICH ARE ABSTRACT CAN BE
DETERMINED ONLY THROUGH MORE COMPLEX
QUESTIONING AND WHERE MOST OF THE CONSTRUCT
MEASURED HAVE NO SINGLE DEFINITION
BASES FOR SEGMENTATION
• GEOGRAPHIC
• DEMOGRAPHIC
• PSYCHOLOGICAL
• PSYCHOGRAPHIC
• SOCIO CULTURAL
• USE-RELATED
• USAGE-SITUATION
• BENEFIT SOUGHT

GEOGRAPHIC SEGMENTATION
• THE DIVISION OF A TOTAL POTENTIAL MARKET INTO
SMALLER SUBGROUPS ON THE BASIS OF
GEOGRAPHIC VARIABLES
(E.G., REGION, STATE, OR CITY) (EX. TEA, DETERGENT,
SKIN CREAM)
• WHERE PERSON LIVES DETERMINES SOME ASPECTS
OF CONSUMPTION BEHAVIOR.
PERSONALITY TRAITS
• PERSONALITY TESTS WHICH ARE GENERALLY IN THE
FORM OF QUESTIONS OR STATEMENT PRESENTED TO
THE RESPONDENT RESEARCHER CAN DETERMINE
ONE’S PERSONALITY AND USE IT IN SEGMENTATION.
• EX. CONSUMER WHO ARE OPEN MINDED AND
GENERALLY TAKE LESS RISK THAT OTHERS IN TRYING

• PSYCHOGRAPHIC VARIABLES INCLUDE ATTITUDES,
INTERESTS, AND OPINIONS (AIO) WHERE INTEREST
AND OPINIONS ARE COGNITIVE CONSTRUCT.
• AIOS GIVE AN IN-DEPTH LOOK INTO THE BUYING
BEHAVIOUR OF THE SEGMENT.
• IN AIO RESEARCH, THE SUBJECT IS ASKED IF HE OR
SHE AGREES OR DISAGREES WITH
CERTAIN STATEMENTS DESIGNED TO EXPLORES HIS
OR HER ATTITUDES, MOTIVES, NEEDS,
Instructions: Please read each statement and place an “x” in the box that best indicates how
strongly you “agree” or “disagree” with the statement.
I feel that my life is moving faster and faster,
sometimes just too fast.
If I could consider the “pluses” and “minuses,”
technology has been good for me.
I find that I have to pull myself away from e-mail.
Given my lifestyle, I have more of a shortage of
time than money.
I like the benefits of the Internet, but I often don’t
have the time to take advantage of them.

• EXPERIENCES THESE CONSUMERS ARE THE HIGH-RESOURCE GROUP OF
THOSE WHO ARE MOTIVATED BY SELF-EXPRESSION. THEY ARE THE

ORIENTATION AND ARE THUS LOCATED BELOW THE RECTANGLE. THEY
ARE THE OLDEST OF ALL THE SEGMENTS, WITH A MEDIAN AGE OF 61.
WITHIN THEIR LIMITED MEANS, THEY TEND TO BE BRAND-LOYAL
CONSUMERS.
• CULTURE SEGMENTATION
• MARKETERS CAN SEGMENT SOME POPULATIONS ON THE BASIS OF

SHARE SAME VALUE,
FAMILY LIFE CYCLE ADVERTISING
Video cameras
are often
purchased by
young couples
with children.
Target reaches
out to the
Latino
market.
DISCUSSION QUESTIONS
• WHAT TYPES OF MARKETERS MIGHT SEGMENT
ACCORDING TO SOCIAL CLASS?
• WHAT ETHICAL ISSUES MIGHT MARKETERS HAVE WHEN
MARKETING TO DIFFERENT SOCIAL CLASSES?
CONSUMPTION SPECIFIC SEGMENTATION BASE
• USAGE RATE SEGMENTATION
• DIFFERENCE AMONG HEAVY, MEDIUM AND LIGHT USERS AND NON
USERS OF SPECIFIC PRODUCT, SERVICE OR BRAND.
• MARKETERS OF MANY PRODUCTS SUCH AS SOUP, LAUNDRY
DETERGENT AND DOG FOOD HAVE FOUND RELATIVE SMALL GROUP
OF HEAVY USERS ACCOUNT.
• USAGE SITUATION SEGMENTATION
• OCCASION OR SITUATION OFTEN DETERMINE WHAT CONSUMERS
WILL PURCHASE OR CONSUME MARKETERS SOMETIMES USE THE
USAGE SITUATION AS SEGMENTATION VARIABLE.
• MANY PRODUCTS ARE PROMOTED FOR SPECIAL USAGE OCCASIONS.

• WHENEVER OUR DAUGHTER JAMIE GETS A RAISE, WE ALWAYS TAKE
HER OUT TO DINNER.
• WHEN I’M AWAY ON BUSINESS, I TRY TO STAY AT A SUITES HOTEL.

THE BENEFITS THAT CONSUMERS SEEK FROM

BENEFIT SEGMENTATION.
Band-aid offers
“flex” as a
