Why should you segment your market? Market segmentation is all about dividing your general group of potential customers into sub-groups that share common attributes.

This understanding will enable you to tailor your marketing strategy to customer segments, most likely to buy your product or service.

Segmenting your market enables you to efficiently use your resources to develop a product and marketing strategy that accurately meets your customers’ needs. It also helps you identify your competitors’ actual strengths and weaknesses and spot new opportunities in the market.

It also examines the different types of strategies for targeting market segments, such as concentrated, differentiated and undifferentiated.
