Market Segmentation
Market segmentation is defined as a form of separating a market of potential consumers
into segments, or groups, depending on several divergent characteristics. Established segments
comprise of customers who need to react in accordance withthe applied strategies of marketing
and who have similar traits. For instance, interests, needs and locations. Market segmentation
assists the marketers to personalize the marketing campaigns — the enterprise’s aim segmented
groups, instead of targeting each potential customer personally. The market segmentation assists
marketers in saving money, time efficiency, and other resources, rather than targeting customers
on a personal level. The aspect of grouping similar clients together with enables marketers to
target cost-effective audiences. Market segmentation also mitigates the risk of an unsuccessful
campaign. As the marketer divides the market depending on main characteristics and
personalizes their marketing strategies depending on that particular information (Kitunen at el,
2019), there is a high likelihood of success than if they were done through the general marketing
campaign and attempt to make it actualize it across all marketing segments. The marketers may
also utilize segmentation to make their target audinces more attractive. For instance, if the
segmentation reveals that individual consumers are more likely to purchase a product than
others, the marketer opts to distribute their resources and attention.
There exists four different types of market segmentation which are mainly used. They
includegeographical, demographic, psychographic and behavioral segmentation. The increase of
customer population and preferences as well as the availability of the competitive options,
marketing segmentation has become crucial in the marketing plan. Demographic segmentation
splits a population intomany divisions based on specific variables. Demographic segmentation

race. People in the same age, life cycle stages, income, and gender, are likely to have the same
interest. Therefore, it can be used for market segmentation. Behavioral segmentation splits based
on the patterns of usage, behavior and decision making. The psychographic segmentation usually
utilizes other people’s lifestyles, interests, opinions and their activities to make up a market
segment (Chen &Gassner, 2012). The geographic segmentation splits based on their location.
The consumers always have different needs based on their location.

services offered by the manufacturer. Customers use the whole product concept to distinguish
and evaluate the products; benefits between many different brands. This makes customers to
choose a suitable product that provides value for the capital spent. Because of these reasons, the
organization uses total products concept to make their products different from their competitors
as well as creating a special position in the market for them (Hänninen&Kauranen, 2006).
The total model is analyzed using four different levels which include the basic core,
which is the package of the functionality benefits. The fundamental core entails all accrued
benefits that the organization promises to offer. The accessory ring has added value benefits
which haven’t been received yet nor paid for. These are the benefits which are given to
customers as added value services separate from the assured main services. The enterprises
depend on these benefits to create a competitive edge over their cpmpetitors by differentiating
their products. Psychology ring is created by benefits resulting from client’s feeling connected

ownership of the product (Warren, Rhodes& Carter, 2001). This usually differs from client to

benefits can be a crucial factor for consumers who are highly engaged in life.
