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

the upperpremium segment.

POSITIONING
“Positioning is statement that shows how you are different, better or more special than your
competition.”
TITAN PERSPECTIVE
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?".
