•Market segmentation is a process of dividing the total,
heterogeneous market for a product into several sub markets
or segments, each of which tends to be homogeneous in all
significant aspects.
•It is a marketing concept which divides the complete market
set up into smaller subsets comprising of consumers with a
similar taste, demand and preference.
•A market segment is a small unit within a large market
comprising of like minded individuals.
•One market segment is totally distinct from the other
segment.
•A market segment comprises of individuals who think on the
same lines and have similar interests.
Philip Kotler, defines “Market segmentation is a process
of identifying groups of buyers with different desires or
requirements.”
