Methodology
Demographics tell you who, not why they buy
Age-and-region segments are easy to build and weak to act on. We segment on behavior, needs, and attitudes, size each group by value, and link it to the outcomes that justify where you invest.
Demographic segmentation
- Groups customers by age, region, and firmographics
- Describes who they are, not what drives them
- Static segments that don’t map to behavior
- No sizing or value attached to each group
