What is Segmentation,Targetting and
Positioning in a nut shell
 Segmentation, targeting, and positioning together comprise a
three stage process.

 
 determine which kinds of customers exist, then

 select which ones we are best off trying to serve and, finally,

 implement our segmentation by optimizing our products/services for that


segment and communicating that we have made the choice to distinguish
ourselves that way
The Three Stage Process(S-T-P)
Positioning Process
The S-T-P Process of Titan watches

Step 1 :Segmentation- the Titan Perspective


The levels of market segmentation are:

 · Segment Marketing
 · Individual Marketing
 · Niche Marketing
 · Local Marketing

.
Segment Marketing

“Marketers target more than one segment when it is not


economically feasible to design products and services for
individual segments.”

 TITAN PERSPECTIVE
Titan has segmented its business into three main categories:
 Mass
 Mid-premium
 luxury
Individual Marketing
“Individual Marketing is the extreme level of
segmentation in which marketers focus on individual
customers.”

TITAN PERSPECTIVE

Titan has not applied this for its marketing !!


NICHE MARKETING

“A niche is more narrowly defined group, typically a small market whose


needs are not well served. Marketers usually identify niches by dividing a
segment into sub segments or defining a group seeking a distinctive mix of
benefits”

TITAN PRESPECTIVE
Serving the youth since they form the majority of customer base.

 introducing FAST TRACK


 · price offering from Rs 500(affordable)
 · watches with style statements
LOCAL MARKETING
“Marketing programs being tailored to the needs and wants of local customer
groups. The prominence of local marketing has also become very
dominant.”

TITAN PERSPECTIVE

All the products of TITAN are addressed to all the customers as a whole.
Localized products are not available. But some products which are
available in UK have some pictures of eminent personalities on their Dial
like M.K. Gandhi, Mr. Jawaharlal Nehru,etc. so that the customers can
identify the product with those dignitaries.

TARGETING
Four main activities in this stage

 Defining the abilities of the company and resources needed to


 enter a market
 Analyzing competitors on their resources and skills
 Considering the company’s abilities compared to the
 competitors’
 Deciding on the actual target markets.
TARGETING
Segment 1
single segment with a single product

SUPPLIER Segment 2

Segment 3

The first is the single segment with a single product.

For example, Titan’s sub brand, Raga is targeting the upwardly mobile ladies in
the upperpremium segment.
TARGETING
Segment 1
One product for all segments
Segment 2
Supplier
Segment 3

Secondly, the marketer could ignore the differences in the segments, and choose to
aim a single product at all segments i.e. the whole market.

TARGETING
Brand A SEGEMENT 1
Supplier Brand B
Brand C SEGEMENT 2
Brand D
SEGEMENT 3

Finally, there is a multi-segment approach. Here a marketer will target a variety of


different segments with a series of differentiated products.

For example, Titan itself provides with the number of different brands/products which
are targeting different segments in the market
POSITIONING
“Positioning is statement that shows how you are different, better or more special than your
competition.”

TITAN PERSPECTIVE

 Titan initially pioneered the concept of "Gifting watches“

Titan pushed the concept of "Matching Watches to Clothes”

Earlier Fastrack was targeted at 20-25 year olds and positioned along the line
"Cool watches from Titan".The company re launched the brand lowering the
target segment to 18-30 year olds with the baseline “How many you have?".
