Why is Segmentation Useful? • “The science of finding, within a heterogeneous customer universe, homogeneous groupings of customers which meet segmentation criteria defined by us” • “Segment quality improves dramatically to the extent that we utilize both subjective and objective criteria to define the segments” • Allows us to assign people and limited resources more efficiently and effectively • Facilitates the uncovering of needs and opportunities not exploited by our current approach • Helps orient the design of products and services for specific sub-groupings of customers, shoppers, and consumers • Results in significant improvement in the impact of marketing initiatives (programs and promotions) and in-store execution • Usually results in better balance between benefits and the costs required to generate them
