Description of the psychographic and demographic profile using
Nielsen Claritas
Claritas PRIZM is one effective market analysis tool that helps
to give a rich and comprehensive market yield with different
customer preferences. This tool analyses customer on the
features of behaviour, geographic data and combination of
demographic customers.
5a Domestic Market
In the domestic market, customers are young people with high
income who have the behaviour of market awareness and adopt
high technology in light of Nielsen Claritas (Brower, 2017).
Psychographic and Demographic profiling of the target
domestic market would allow determining the individual as well
as collective consumer patterns and behaviours of the target
market. It would become quite an easy task to find out if the
domestic market has a niche or a larger audience in the market.
5b International Market
In the international market, customer’s traits have targeted on
the basis of education and people who have a high income. On
the basis of behaviour, people who like adventure and fun in
life. This psychographic information on people can be used to
determine whether the target market is the right choice, and
what steps are needed to be taken in order to prove this venture
to be a success. Other than this the collective psychographic
profiling can be combined to determine the demographic
patterns of the international markets. This would determine
whether there is a niche audience or a larger target audience in
the target market, in the international market.Insights from
analysis of demographic and psychographic information
On the basis of these factors, it can be described that a company
can understand the behaviour of the customer with demographic
and psychographic factors. Psychographics are used to

10. determine individual preferences of consumers, by applying
methodologies of studying personality traits, and determining
values, opinions, attitudes, interests and lifestyles.
Demographics can be used to determining individual consumer
preferences of the target market, a demography approach,
however, targets a broader audience. Demography is used to
target and determine the consumer patterns of large masses of
audiences, instead of individual consumers. A demographic
approach can be used to determine the changes and similarities
to determine the consumer behaviour of a target market. Both,
the psychographic and the demographic approaches are
immensely useful tools while determining consumer patterns
and behaviours while researching a target market.

1. UK as Foreign Market of iPhone 8
UK has the largest segment of iPhone in foreign market so it
has been chosen as a foreign segment for this part of writing.
Customers of this geographical market are educated and techno
savvy so demand for emerging technologies is always high in
this market. This social factor of market makes it’s among the
most important segments of target geographical markets.

12. Further, growing GDP rate of 0.4% in recent years also shows
the affordability of consumers in market (Country Economy,
2018).
2. Product Life Cycle
Gmelin and Seuring, (2014) stated that in this fast passed
technological era it has become necessary for companies to
develop new products quicker than ever before. This fast
product development has shorten the product life cycle of
brands. Apple understands this aspect of PLC very well that’s
way they always introduce new product as a pro-active approach
and add on to the existing brands to extend the PLC of their
products. There is a 100% growth shift as blend of growth in
both value and growth (Apple Inc., 2018). Introduction, growth
and maturity stages of iPhone 8 are described for both domestic
and chosen foreign market of UK.
Image No. 1.
Sales
Introduction Growth Maturity

13. Time
a. PLC for US (Domestic Market)
With this frequently changing market trends Apple always
introduced new brands iPhone 8 is among one of the latest
brands with two different version as iPhone 8 and iPhone 8
plus. Brand has passed through its introduction phase, where it
has been widely accepted and purchased brand in global market
as more than 40 million units were sold in country in current
year (Statista, 2018). In US iPhone grabbed 40.25% of total
smart phone market of 69% in last year (Finder, 2018). Growth
of iPhone brand has declined as in previous year its sale was
around 80 million units so the brand of iPhone 8 is moving
towards its maturity period with the launch of iPhone 9.
b. PLC for UK (Foreign Market)
Introduction of iPhone 8 has been successful in UK as sales of
brand have been increased from previous year as 41.79 million
iPhone were sold in 3rd quarter of this year (Haslam, 2018).
Sale of product is expected to grow in UK with 16 to 17% rate
but after this quarter consumer would have another product
from Apple as iPhone 9 so the product of iPhone 8 is now at its

14. maturity in UK.
3. Metrics for Measuring Marketing Activities (Positioning,
Targeting, and the 4 P's)
Customer based metrics and business financial performance
metrics are suggested by Leeflang, Verhoef, Dahlström, and
Freundt, (2014) to measure effectiveness of marketing activities
like segmentation targeting and positioning.
a. Domestic Market
For domestic market company needs to measure effectiveness of
newly product launched and promotion activities occurred to
introduced and position the brand. For this purpose these
metrics are suggested;
· Product: Pipeline growth and acceleration
· Promotion/Pricing: Customer lifetime value and Revenue
b. Foreign Market
In foreign or host market company has chosen to capture some
new segments so here there is need to measure the effectiveness
of targeting, product itself, place of product, promotion and
pricing. These all are necessary to measure because this will tell
which part is strong and where there is lack to focus more.
· Targeting: Lead Generation and Customer Acquisition
· Product: Pipeline growth and acceleration
· Place: Sales
· Promotion/Pricing: Customer lifetime value
4. Media Methods for the products

15. a. Domestic Market
1 – Printed Media
US is a developed country, people of the state are educated and
aware of technology so print media has also converted into
digital media as almost of magazines are available online. So,
printing ads on magazines like Smartphones Times and other
magazines of related category are good choice for print media
methods for the brand.
2 – Social Media
This is the most effective and widely used media method of this
age, one who neglects this cannot survive at this time of
business world. Social media campaigns are suggested as there
are cloud solutions available to measure effectiveness in terms
of lead conversion and customer loyalty development.
b. Foreign Market
1 – Printed Media

5. Product and Promotion List
5.1. Integrated Marketing Communication
a. Domestic and Foreign Market
In terms of developing communication plan for domestic market
there would be almost same plan as both countries have same
language and are developed states. Where, there are educated
people, techno savvy so the message of product would be same.
5.2. Advertising Strategy/Objective
a. Domestic Market and Foreign Market
For this purpose print and non print ads are suggested for the
brand (James & Rose-Ackerman, 2013);
· TV
· Radio
· Magazine
5.3. Positioning
a. Domestic Market
There is a difference in economic conditions of country so
positioning strategy would be different on that basis otherwise
social factor are almost same in sense of education and
technology awareness. iPhone has 40% of share in total market
of Smartphones in USA and Google android has more than 50%

17. share of total market so iPhone needs to stick on their
differentiation strategy and as to adopt competitive positioning
strategy to capture maximum share of domestic market (Statista,
2018).
b. Foreign Market
iPhone has lost their market share in recent share from 52.8% to
49.85% so their differentiation strategy needs to make a set of
positioning strategy along with differentiation (Statista, 2018).
For this purpose adopting customization in segment would
encourage to gain the maximum share of market.

Price and Place/Distribution of Apple Inc
Introduction
Apple Inc. has been in the forefront in ensuring that it aligns
its actions with the clients’ needs as well as the market
conditions. Having an analysis of Apple’s pricing as well as

21. distribution plans is essential in determining its performances in
the domestic and the foreign market as a reputable company in
the communication industry, mainly dealing with the mobile
devices such as iPhone. Hence, the incorporation of several
channels and with the ever-increasing product portfolio is
significant in the promotion and success of the company in both
the domestic and foreign markets according to Khan, Alam, &
Alam (2015). Such marketing features are significant in
understanding the way Apple Inc. is continually expanding in
its business internationally via the several channels addressed in
this paper.
Distribution Strategies:
a. Domestic Distribution Strategies
Apple Inc. relies on all-inclusive distribution that enjoys the
benefit of the various distribution channels available in its
domestic market. For instance, there are various stores located
countrywide that act as the company’s primary ways of reaching
the local customer base with a remarkable rate of success. As an
American multinational technology company with its
headquarters in Cupertino, California it has made progress in its
sales and customer services locally through advertisements in
the local media and ensuring that all the products are customer-
tailored. Moreover, regarding the quality of the products and
services offered by the company in its endeavors, most of the
local players. For example, the stores in which the company

22. operates from the customers are always ensured of quality
products and services, and this makes the marketing process
more manageable because of testimonials from one person to
another work efficiently. Therefore, the organization through its
distribution strategies ensures that the local people are satisfied
with the products and services provided by the company (Khan,
Alam, & Alam, 2015).
b. Foreign Distribution Strategies
Apple Inc. channels, as well as international outlets, are close
and prevalent to make sure that distribution is more comfortable
according to (Chikhale & Mansouri, 2015). In most of the cases,
the company ensures that a particular distribution plan is
adopted for the international supply of products and services to
the clients. The organization gives some suppliers and seller the
control over advertising o marketing strategies and tools, which
bake the marketing process effective because the marketer will
choose the most effective ones. Some of the most general
marketing tools used in the Apple’s distribution strategy and
include authorized retailers, online store, fulfillment services,
and Apple stores (Chikhale & Mansouri, 2015). The company
enjoys the highest customer retention rates in the Smartphone in
the show in figure 1 below, thanks to its marketing and loyal
customers across the world. Comment by Grammarly: Deleted:

Daily Pricing, Promotion Pricing, List Pricing:
a. Domestic Market
In the US Apple Inc. uses a premium pricing strategy to ensure
a low price of goods and deliver a reasonable profit margin. The
premium pricing strategy is aimed at attracting the customers in
the local market since customers are willing to pay for the value
they receive from the products (Jackson & Ahuja, 2016). As a
marketing element, Apple is very keen on how it prices its
products locally. Such an approach is a daily and promotion
pricing strategy that is connected to high prices (Jackson &
Ahuja, 2016). As a result, the company is mainly interested in
maintaining corporation and high-end replication of its
products. Jackson & Ahuja (2016), further note that by adopting
such a strategy, the company aims at introducing their products
to a smaller market share that includes middle and upper classes
in the US. The premium pricing strategy implemented in the
local market is proof that the company intends to maintain a
high level of profitability.
b. Foreign Market
It is not customary for Apple to offer a discount on their
products through the sales on direct channels. Nonetheless, the
company offers its international customers discounts on
refurbished products. In all times, Apple Inc. maintains the

24. same reseller pricing. Albeit there are legal implications for
setting dealer prices, the company retains stable retail prices
(Jackson & Ahuja, 2016). In international markets, the company
maintains the prices of its products by limiting its dealers’
profit margins, maintain the terms involved in reselling their
products, and offering no discounts. For international markets,
there are many retail and online stores which are attractive.
Dynamic/static pricing strategy:
a. Domestic Strategy
In the United States, Apple Inc. uses a static pricing strategy
that stays the same much of the time (Chen & Ann, 2016). The
lack of change in its static pricing strategy is because the
company is focused on the delivery and production of its
premium products that are available at almost the same price in
varying markets. Moreover, this has made the company improve
concerning the units sold in most of its products as indicated in
the graph figure 2 below for its Smartphone devices.Figure 2.
iPhone, iPad and iPod sales from 1st quarter 2006 to 3rd quarter
2018 (in a million units)
Source: Statista 2018
b. Foreign Markets
Apple Inc. has an unmatched marketing prowess for it has
managed to maintain the same prices in most international

25. markets. The same prices in different markets are an indication
that the company targets consumers who need premium products
(Chen & Ann, 2016). Pricing of products is strategically done to
ensure that the middle class and lower class consumers are
attracted. The promotion and pricing of the products are used by
the company to communicate effectively with potential
customers in every part of the world.
Conclusion
It is vivid that Apple Inc. has an efficient price and place plan
to maintain and improve its product marketing. The company
has been capable of managing quality services at a fair price,
both locally and internationally. In some cases, Apple Inc. has
been capable of maintaining the prices via maintaining the
dealership margins and providing discounts. The examination
of the company’s distribution and pricing strategies is essential.
Moreover, knowing Apple’s various strategies in its business is
significant in promoting the business in the global arena.
