Segmentation
Segmentation is a vital element of sound advertising strategy and branding. Why use segmentation research? Because knowing your ideal target audiences based on testing will vastly improve your chances of reaching the right people. Being familiar with the demographics and psychographics of your distinct targets will help with the long-term acquisition and retention strategies. Segmentation can give your brand an inside perspective into behavioral and attitudinal traits.
