Definitions of Research in Marketing IThe International Chamber of Commerce (ICC)/European Society for Opinion and Market Research (ESOMAR) multipart definition of marketing research stresses that:
‘Marketing research is a key element within the total field of marketing information. It links the consumer, customer and the public to the marketer through information which is used to identify and define marketing opportunities and problems; generate, refine and evaluate marketing actions; improve understanding of marketing as a process and of the ways in which specific marketing activities can be made more effective. Marketing research specifies the information required to address these issues; designs the method for collecting information; manages and implements the data-collection process; analyses the results; and communicates the findings and their implications’ (ESOMAR, 1995).

Process of Market SegmentationThere are two main approaches to segmenting markets:
Breakdown Method: Adopts the view that the market is considered to consist of customers which are essentially the same, so the task is to identify groups which share particular differences.
Build-Up Method: Considers a market to consist of customers that are all different, so here the task is to find similarities.

Process of Market SegmentationThe aim is to identify segments where:
• identifiable differences exist between segments (segment heterogeneity).
• similarities exist between members within each segment (members homogeneity).

segments?Accessible – can buyers be reached through appropriate
promotional programmes and distribution channels?Measurable – is the segment easy to identify and
measure?Profitable – is the segment sufficiently large to provide a

Repositioning Strategies
The following four ways outline how to approach repositioning a product, depending on the individual situation facing a brand. In some cases, a brand
might need to be adapted before relaunch.
1. Change the tangible attributes and then communicate the new proposition to the same market.
2. Change the way a product is communicated to the original market.
3. Change the target market and deliver the same product.
4. Change both the product (attributes) and the target market.
