1 Identify your segment criteria

The first step to use consumer segmentation is to define the criteria that you will use to group your customers. Depending on your product or service, you may want to consider factors such as age, income, location, lifestyle, values, attitudes, motivations, needs, pain points, and behaviors of both the parents and the children. For example, if you are designing a toy, you may want to segment your customers by the age and gender of the children, the budget and preferences of the parents, the educational and entertainment value of the toy, and the frequency and occasion of use.

2 Conduct market research

The next step is to conduct market research to collect data and insights about your segment. You can use various methods such as surveys, interviews, focus groups, observation, or online analytics to gather information about your customers' characteristics, needs, preferences, and behaviors. You can also analyze your competitors and industry trends to identify gaps and opportunities in the market. For example, if you are designing a car seat, you may want to research the safety and comfort features that parents and children value, the regulations and standards that apply, the price range and distribution channels that are available, and the innovations and best practices that are emerging.

In a research regarding new toys I think it might be useful to acknowledge the way parents and children are going to interact with products. So, interviews, Focus groups, observation in store, in house, may be really useful.

3 Create segment profiles

The third step is to create segment profiles that describe the key attributes and motivations of each group of customers. You can use tools such as personas, empathy maps, or value propositions to synthesize and visualize your data and insights. You can also assign names and images to your segments to make them more realistic and relatable. For example, if you are designing a meal kit, you may want to create profiles for segments such as busy working parents who want convenience and nutrition, health-conscious parents who want organic and fresh ingredients, or adventurous parents who want variety and creativity.

4 Evaluate segment attractiveness

The fourth step is to evaluate the attractiveness of each segment based on their size, growth potential, profitability, accessibility, and compatibility with your product or service. You can use criteria such as market share, revenue, margin, cost, competition, distribution, and customer loyalty to assess each segment. You can also use tools such as SWOT analysis, Porter's five forces, or BCG matrix to compare and contrast your segments. For example, if you are designing a clothing line, you may want to evaluate segments such as trendy parents who want fashionable and high-quality clothes, value-conscious parents who want affordable and durable clothes, or eco-friendly parents who want sustainable and ethical clothes.

5 Select segment strategy

The fifth step is to select the segment strategy that best suits your product or service, your segment attractiveness, and your business goals. You can choose from different segment strategies such as undifferentiated, differentiated, concentrated, or niche. Undifferentiated strategy means targeting the whole market with a single product or service. Differentiated strategy means targeting several segments with different products or services. Concentrated strategy means targeting one or a few segments with a specialized product or service. Niche strategy means targeting a very specific and narrow segment with a unique product or service. For example, if you are designing a video game, you may want to choose a differentiated strategy and target segments such as casual gamers who want fun and easy games, hardcore gamers who want challenging and immersive games, or social gamers who want interactive and collaborative games.

6 Implement segment tactics

The final step is to implement the segment tactics that will help you reach, engage, and retain your customers. You can use the marketing mix elements of product, price, place, and promotion to tailor your product or service to each segment. You can also use the customer journey stages of awareness, consideration, purchase, retention, and advocacy to optimize your customer experience. For example, if you are designing a travel package, you may want to use segment tactics such as offering family-friendly destinations and activities, providing flexible and competitive pricing, distributing through online and offline channels, and promoting through social media and referrals.
