Chapter 4

Eg. VW “bug”

Single-Offer Strategy
Danger -
It is very easy for a competitor company to copy your single product, and sell it at a lower price, and take away all your customers.
Page 61
Prof. Richardson MKTG 116 slide 10
Chapter 4
Multi-Offer Strategy
The attempt to satisfy several segments of the market very well with specialized products and unique marketing programs aimed at each segment.
Page 60
Sometimes called “Differentiated Marketing”
Prof. Richardson MKTG 116 slide 11

Prof. Richardson MKTG 116 slide 13
Chapter 4 Market Segmentation Decision Process - STAGES
Stage I: Identify Market Segmentation Bases
The process starts when a company looks at the potential customers and identifies those customers as having particular characteristics - these characteristics will allow the marketing company to classify them into market segments.
The segments should be selected so that you can group together customers who have similar needs. Page 63
Prof. Richardson MKTG 116 slide 14
Chapter 4 Market Segmentation Decision Process - STAGES
Stage II Develop Relevant Profiles for each Segment
Once the segments have been identified -
should develop a profile of the relevant customer needs and behaviors in each segment.
What does your customer look like (profile) !!
What do they like !!
What do they do !!
- you need this description to be very precise in order to make your marketing “match” the needs of the customer Page 64
Prof. Richardson MKTG 116 slide 15
Chapter 4 Market Segmentation Decision Process - STAGES
Stage III Forecast Market Potentials
You create a “Forecast” of the market potential within each segment.
This is the “go, no-go” stage. When you are at this stage you gather the information on sales potential to determine whether you can go further ahead and justify further analysis.
Forecast - “what if” - an expectation of future action.
Page 64

Chapter 4 Market Segmentation Decision Process - STAGES
Stage I V Forecast Probably Market Share
Once the market potential has been estimated, you have to determine how much of that market you can obtain (what “market share” can you capture.
Then you develop specific marketing strategy for the segments you are trying to develop.(text eg. P&G outselling Colgate, therefore Colgate strategy changes so it doesn’t compete directly)
Page 64
Prof. Richardson MKTG 116 slide 17
Chapter 4 Market Segmentation Decision Process - STAGES
Stage V Select Specific Market Segments
Finally, you take all this information, and identify specific target markets.
ie. University students who have part-time jobs, and do not have credit cards

A “tool” (method) for outlining the scope (size and range) of the market.
Allows you to look at all possible market segments - AND then pick which ones you want to focus on.
Once you make this grid, you can then evaluate the aspects (wants, needs and motivations) of each market segment.
