How does a segment differ from an audience?
Demographics only convey part of the picture. Consumers with similar demographics can exhibit very different behaviors and lifestyles that affect their propensity to buy your product. Segments provide a three dimensional view of consumers that covers things like urbanicity, socio-economic rank and demographic dimensions. This enables you to differentiate behaviors within groups that have similar demographics. Segmentation can answer these important questions: - Who are my targets?
- What are they like?
- Where can I find them?
- How can I reach them?
