Market segmentation is essential in identifying, sizing, and developing effective market penetration and expansion strategies. Today's business managers are expected to explore a broader range of market opportunities for their products and services, often in unfamiliar markets in developing countries. In this session, participants will learn about:
- Emerging-market segmentation challenges and benefits
- Methods for modeling complex social, economic and political characteristics to organize developing-world countries into mutually exclusive and exhaustive clusters
- Addressing weaknesses in data quality
- Uncovering the unintuitive similarities across markets that go beyond standard regional and economic characteristics
With accurate, detailed segmentation models, business managers can successfully identify the best potential markets and develop targeted strategies for expansion, greatly reducing the risks in new business endeavors.
