THE IMPORTANCE OF THE SEGMENT

Companies will not survive if the marketing strategy is dependent upon targeting an entire mass market. The importance of market segmentation is that it allows a business to precisely reach a consumer with specific needs and wants. In the long run, this benefits the Company because they are able to use their corporate resources more effectively and make better strategic marketing decisions.

Organizations create a set of segments to project their products focusing on a specific niche market. This niche market defines the product features aimed at satisfying specific market needs including the price, quality & demographic factors. Organizations use segmentation as a tool to make optimum utilization of their finite resources.

Market Segmentation and subsequent Product Differentiation Strategy by an organization is concentrating all marketing efforts on a small but specific and well-defined segment of the population. This is done through identifying needs,wants and requirements that are being addressed poorly or not at all by other firms, and developing and delivering goods or services to satisfy them. As a strategy, Market Segmentation is aimed at being a big fish in a small pond instead of being a small fish in a big pond.

In essence, objectives of segmentation analysis are:

• To reduce risk in deciding where, when, how, and to whom a service, or brand will be marketed

• To increase marketing efficiency by directing effort specifically toward the designated segment in a manner

• consistent with that segments characteristics While it is relatively easy to identify segments of consumers, most Company do not have the capabilities or the need to effectively market their services to all of the segments that can be identified. A Company selects its target market because it exhibits the strongest affinity to a particular services or brand. It is in essence the most likely to buy the service.
