segments can be measured.
* Accessible: The market segments can be effectively reached and
served.
* Substantial: The market segments are large or profitable enough
to serve.
* Differentiable: The segments are conceptually distinguishable
and respond differently to different marketing mix elements and
programs.
* Actionable: Effective programs can be designed for attracting and
serving the segments. Segments are not actionable because:
* The company has limited resources.
* The segments are not responsive to the company’s marketing efforts.

providing the most
upscale product or service and
charging a higher price to cover the
higher cost

more for the same

attack a competitor’s value proposition
by positioning its brand as offering
more for the same price.
65
more for less
Many companies
claim to do this. And, in the short run,
some companies can actually achieve
such lofty positions.
66
same for less
Offering the same
for less can be a powerful value
proposition—everyone likes a good
deal.

consumers will gladly settle for less than-optimal performance or give up
some of the bells and whistles in
exchange for a lower price.

83
choosing a targeting strategy
Company resources: few resources--> undifferentiated or concentrated
product/market variability: moderate to high product variability--> differnetiated, concentrated, or micro
competition: more competition--> differentiated, concentrated, or micro
segment profitability: fewer profitable segments= concentrated, the segments are less profitable--> undifferentiated
