Our four-stage segmentation process follows a robust design, development, delivery and implementation framework.

 

Stage 1:

Design

The design stage is critical to laying the groundwork for successful segmentation:

  • Grasping the business context through stakeholder interviews and immersion sessions, aligning segmentation objectives with strategic goals

  • Crafting universal success criteria and project-specific dimensions to ensure tailored, industry-specific insights

  • Developing a bespoke, quality-focused survey designed to capture rich, nuanced data

  • Implementing an over-sampling approach to obtain high-quality, reliable data by collecting more responses than what is typically required. This approach ensures that our research sample is sufficiently robust and diverse, providing greater confidence in the insights generated.

Stage 2:

Development

The development stage brings your segmentation solution into focus: 

Fine-tuning segment groups using advanced clustering techniques and iterative refinement. 

  • Audiences may be segmented by qualitative factors such as values, needs, attitudes, purchase / engagement behaviors, psychographics, media preferences or, as is often the case, a combination of these

  • All segment solutions need to pass our ‘universal segment success’ criteria, which combine set criteria such as size of segment with tailored criteria that focus on the specific segmentation objectives. These are generated collaboratively during Stage 1.

Creating immersive segment profiles that incorporate pre-tasking, online communities, in-person interviews, video content, and other innovative methods to enrich understanding.

Stage 3:

Deliver

Our multifaceted delivery phase incorporates a collaborative approach, with various elements designed to meet the needs of your organization:

  • Personalized segment sharing e.g. in varied formats that resonate with different internal audiences

  • In-depth segment analysis, focused on your target segments

  • Target segment workshops

  • Tailored launch events

Stage 4:
