What is Market Segmentation? It’s the task of breaking the total market (which is typically too large to serve) into segments that share common properties It’s the task of breaking the total market (which is typically too large to serve) into segments that share common properties A market segment is a gross slice of the market such as high-income car buyers A market segment is a gross slice of the market such as high-income car buyers A market niche is a smaller, specially formed segment, such as high-income car buyers who want high-performance sports cars A market niche is a smaller, specially formed segment, such as high-income car buyers who want high-performance sports cars It’s the task of breaking the total market (which is typically too large to serve) into segments that share common properties It’s the task of breaking the total market (which is typically too large to serve) into segments that share common properties A market segment is a gross slice of the market such as high-income car buyers A market segment is a gross slice of the market such as high-income car buyers A market niche is a smaller, specially formed segment, such as high-income car buyers who want high-performance sports cars A market niche is a smaller, specially formed segment, such as high-income car buyers who want high-performance sports cars
