Group Work
• Pick any two businesses within the same industry
• Answer these questions:– How do they segment their customers?– How do they use the marketing mix elements
(product, price, channel, marketing communications) to differentiate themselves?
– Whose strategy is superior? Why?

A business that is not segmenting its customers is leaving money on the table – guaranteed!

Market Segmentation: Glue that Holds the Business Together
• Why segment customers?– If you are not segmenting your customers, you are:
• Treating everyone the same, regardless of needs• Wasting resources• Trying to be all things to all people• Not giving the sales force any direction
![Page 27: P a g e | 1 Marketing Concepts & Overview Market Segmentation & Positioning Dr. Ajay K. Sirsi Schulich School of Business asirsi@schulich.yorku.ca](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022081513/56649e255503460f94b14060/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)

Segmentation Principles
• A business exists to be profitable– Opposite: focus on volume
• All customers are not created equal– Customer needs– Cost to serve– Appreciation of value creation– Propensity to pay
• We cannot be all things to all customers– Choose segments to serve

Good segmentations identify the groups most worth pursuing -- the
underserved, the dissatisfied, and those likely to make a first-time purchase

Segmentation Pitfalls
• Always targeting the largest segment• Failing to identify and invest in emerging segments• Developing segmentation schemes that are not
actionable– Over segmenting
• Targeting too many customers with one offering• Forgetting that segments change

Segmentation Pitfalls
• Segmenting by product, and not by market• Using the same segmentation scheme as competitors• Always using the same segmentation approach• Relying only on the easiest -- demographics• Using complex segmentations -- before trying simple
ones• Not realizing that segmentation is evolutionary

Segmentation Checklist
1. Is our segmentation scheme simple?– Will people understand and use it?– Is it too complex?
2. Have we segmented our markets using existing data?– Are we starting small, but starting now?
3. Have we utilized customer needs and attractiveness in our segmentation?– Or, are we relying on demographics?
4. Is our segmentation scheme actionable?– Can we actually implement this?

Segmentation Checklist
