Answer to Question 2

Consumer market segmentation
is the process of dividing your market into groups of people, or segments that are similar to one another and different from everyone else. There are four types of market segmentation: demographic, geographic, psychographic, and behavioral.

Demographic segmentation is the preferred starting point for many marketers because it is how they divide the market, based on measurable characteristics about people such as age, income, ethnicity, and gender.

Geographic segmentation refers to dividing the market based on where the consumers live such as what country, city, state, or county in which they are located. This provides details about population density in a given area.

Psychographic segmentation is generally used to complement other marketing segmentation approaches. Psychographic segmentation divides the market based on consumer attitudes, interests, values, and lifestyles.

Behavioral segmentation refers to dividing the market based on how people behave toward various products.
