AIM: Explain the concept of segmentation and analyze a target market. Do Now: • Take out your notebook and copy down the
Aim.
Who is this ad targeting?
What are the two, broad ways of planning target-market activities?
1. Mass Marketing 2. Marketing Segmentation
Mass Marketing
A Mass Market is the overall market or group of people who might buy a product or service. Products that appeal to nearly everyone have mass markets.
Market Segmentation
• The process of classifying people who form a given market into even smaller groups based on common characteristics, and then marketing to that one particular group. Businesses look for ways to connect with current and potential customers. The surest way to make that connection is to know these people well. This
means knowing where they live, their income level, age, ethic background, activities, values and
interests.
Market Segmentation Factors • Demographics
– Age – Gender – Income – Marital Status – Ethnic Background – Education – Occupation
• Geographics – Local – Regional – National – Global
Market Segmentation Factors
• Psychographics – Grouping people with similar lifestyles – Attitudes – Activities – Personality – Value
• Behavioral – Benefits desired by customer – Shopping patterns – Usage rate

Betty Crocker Cake Mix MARKET: • Demographic: female, 25-45, married, children living at home, low-
middle income, a homemaker or only employed part-time outside the home
• Psychographic: enjoys baking • Geographic: rural or city in any region • Behavioral - Product Usage: is a regular user of cake mix products. Summary: • In general, a stay-home mom or part-time mom is more likely to bake
cupcakes and cakes for her children and others. A “stay-home” mom is usually between the ages of 25-45 who is normally married. The word “mom” indicates that there are children living in the home. The reason for choosing low- middle income includes the fact that most higher income mothers, even stay-home mothers, will more likely pay to have someone else bake the cakes/cupcakes because of their busy required social activities. There really is no particular geographic for this group as celebrating children and activities is a regular activity in homes with children in all locations.
