Question

What is segmentation?

Answer 1

The process of defining and subdividing a large homogenous market into clearly identifiable segments having similar needs, wants, or demand characteristics. Its objective is to design a marketing mix that precisely matches the expectations of customers in the targeted segment.
Few companies are big enough to supply the needs of an entire market; most must breakdown the total demand into segments and choose those that the company is best equipped to handle.

Four basic factors that affect market segmentation are
clear identification of the segment,
measurability of its
effective
size,
its
accessibility
through promotional efforts, and
its
appropriateness
to the
policies
and
resources
of the company.

The four basic market segmentation-strategies are based on
behavioral,
demographic
,
psychographic
, and
geographical differences.
