  2. Demographic Segmentation – defines market according to the following: Segmenting • Demographic Segmentation – defines market according to the following:

  3. Segmenting Psychological Segmentation- identifies market according to lifestyle characteristics

  4. Segmenting • Geographic Segmentation- The identification of target markets based on the regional, urban, or rural locations of the customers • Both car companies have different models of vehicles to help each individual accomplish a safe drive where ever they are coming from.

  5. The positioning strategies: Product Differentiation BMW – cars communicate valued differences and distinguish it from other competitors by image (described as a premium brand), quality (uses cutting edge technology) and design (very sleek and unique) • FERRARI – is a car in the Super luxury sub-category and is distinctly more expensive compared to the luxury cars such as BMW, Lexus, and Mercedes. Brand Leadership Positioning BMW- has maintained its leadership brand positioning for many years. Its success is the result of a consistent strategy and is oriented towards meeting the needs of customers. FERRARI- it is probably the only car maker that never worry at competition price its name is unmatchable.

  6. The positioning strategies: Head-On Positioning (comparative positioning) • BMW- There is a sign of a little comparison between BMW and perhaps Mercedes but the ads don’t usually show it. It is only in minds of customers who tend to compare these two cars quite often. • FERRARI- It is a one of a kind automobile that doesn’t need to be compared to other brands since it has a well-developed name in the car’s market. Innovation Positioning • BMW- uses continuous innovation. As an example we have an innovation of a completely redesign the 3-series model with even better power than ever before, a stiffer suspension, taillight lenses. • FERRARI- the latest innovation is the 360 Modena. The 360 Modena combines Ferrari heritage with innovation.

  7. The positioning strategies: Price Positioning • BMW- In this case searching for the best possible value is a little complicated because cars like BMW has ranked on a high-end price level and are relatively expensive and therefore their customers are usually well off people. • FERRARI- Similar situation, as with BMW although Ferrari cars are designed and sold to a more serious group of customers since the price can be very costly. Lifestyle Positioning • BMW- Young urban professionals usually drive these luxury cars. It is a question of a status and is associated with it. • FERRARI- Baby boomers by purchasing Ferrari might see this as an opportunity to boost up their image position.
