Market Segmentation • A market segment is a group of actual or potential customers who can be expected to respond in a similar way to a product or service offer. They want the same types of benefits or solutions to problems from a product or service, or they respond in a similar way to a company’s promotional programs. • Successful segmentation: • Heterogeneity of wants and needs. Customers will actively seek and pay a premium for products and services that better meet their wants/needs. • Customers do cluster into specific groups whose members’ needs are more similar to those of other customers in that groups than they are to the needs of customers in other groups. (Tennis shoes) • The costs of serving a customer in a segment must be no more than they are willing to pay. When successful segmentation conditions exist, a firm that does not segment the market presents its competitors with an opportunity to enter the market.
