Segmentation

Identifying different consumer groups in the market is a powerful tool for determining target audience characteristics beyond basic demographics and category behaviors. 

W5 views Segmentation as the study of consumers’ responses to specific attitudinal, behavioral, psychographic, and category- and brand-related questions. During analysis, consumers with similar attitudes and thought processes are bundled together to create an audience “segment.”

Segmentation is beneficial to those seeking a reliable understanding of consumers based on stable, real-world criteria. W5 leverages a mix of applied approaches to ensure resulting segments are actionable and capable of informing product/service refinement, brand positioning, and communications strategies.

W5’s approach to custom, strategic segmentation research will:

  • Determine which consumer segments exist and reveal the relative size of each

  • Evaluate the potential economic value of each segment

  • Identify the behaviors, attitudes, needs, and underlying psychographics of each segment and how these differ from one another
