Concept 1: Target marketing

• Companies cannot connect with all customers in
large, broad, or diverse markets
• “To compete more effectively…[companies] are now
focusing on those consumers they have the greatest
chance of satisfying.”

Concept 12: Selecting
market Segments
(Targeting)
22. www. facebook.com/v65ASMPHMarkma
• Target marketing includes three activities: market
segmentation, market targeting, and market positioning
• Market segments are large, identifiable groups within a market.
• Two bases for segmenting consumer markets are consumer
characteristics and consumer responses.
• The major segmentation variables for consumer markets are
geographic, demographic, psychographic, and behavioral.
Marketers use them singly or in combination
• To be useful, market segments must be measurable, substantial,
accessible, differentiable, and actionable
• We can target markets at four main levels: mass, multiple
segments, single (or niche) segment, and individuals.
• A niche is a more narrowly defined group. Globalization and the
Internet have made niche marketing more feasible to many.
