Demographic segmentation:
A simple yet effective market segmentation method, demographic segmentation
aims to sort your audience based on objective data, such as:
+ Age
+ Gender
+ Marital status
+ Income
+ Education level
+ Profession
Psychographic segmentation:
Unlike demographic segmentation, psychographic segmentation is subjective, as
it tries to find out your audience’s:
+ Values
+ Aspirations
+ Opinions
+ Preferences
+ Lifestyle
+ Social status
+ Interests
Geographic segmentation:
Geographic segmentation is sorting your customers and prospects according to
where they:
+ Live
+ Work
+ Travel
+ Shop
It makes sense to group your audience according to geography because of
location-based factors like:
+ Climate
+ Culture
+ Language
+ Urban or rural setting
+ Weather
Behavioral segmentation:
You can gather your prospects and customers’ behavioral data through
your website analytics or customer relationship management (CRM) software.
Here are some of the behaviors you can look at:
+ Buying habits
+ Browsing habits
+ Buying history
+ Interaction with your brand and website
+ Customer satisfaction
