Tiivistelmä: | The article reviews some current guidance on when and how to segment business-to-business markets. It evaluates traditional segmentation processes and the variables usually recommended. Several important issues are highlighted including: the limitations of current definitions; the continuing tension between theoretically meaningful and managerially possible segmentation methods, and the difficulties in using product benefits as opposed to customer needs as a basis for segmentation. |
