- An Introduction to Market Segmentation by Professor Malcolm McDonald
Case studies
The following two case studies are the additional resources referred to in Chapter 15 of Market Segmentation: How to do it, how to profit from it:
- Looking for growth opportunities through segmentation – the IMC case study
This case study illustrates how segmentation can provide a better understanding of a company’s customers to improve the strategic direction and efficiency of the marketing effort. It was written by a management consulting company offering a wide range of consulting services in a specific industry sector.
- The contribution of segmentation to business planning – the ICIF case study
This case study looks at the important contribution made by segmentation to a business plan that proved to be a critical turning point for a UK manufacturing company. To ensure the part played by segmentation is seen in context, the case study starts well before the segmentation project was even commissioned.
