Market Segmentation (1)- www.MarketingPlanNOW.com

The importance of segmenting is uncontested, but should we segment the targeted audiences only by demographics, etc., as we can learn from most of the marketing literature? No!

This first video (out of two) illustrates how we can segment "by needs" as marketing is mainly about catering to needs. Not how many people watch this video, but "Why" do you watch the video - what are your needs to do so?

The second video (out of two) shows how we can segment our customer-base by loyaly (Data-base Marketing) and includes the understanding that there are several levels of segmenting the demand as the person who buys the product is unnecessarily the one who pays for it nor the one who consumes it.

I'm writing a paper on how crocs would target/position it's self in Asia. Any suggestion on this?

Thanks for approaching me with this challenge.

Firstly, I'd select one major city in one Asian country as a test market, no one can conquer Asia at the same time using the same marketing strategy. Please let me know if it helped you, Danny
