everyone.

Marketers examine two key factors to define their market:

Who is interested in a product?
Who can afford their product?
A market is made up of all people who share similar needs
and wants and who have the ability to purchase your product.

MUST MEET BOTH CRITERIA TO BE INCLUDED

Prices range from $600,000 and $850,000

customers by needs and wants.

Marketer’s must develop a clear target market before developing a
marketing strategy.

Same Product--- Different Approach
To target parents you would use commercials that advertise how
healthy they are and air them on a Saturday night.
To target children you would use commercials that focus on how fun
the cereal is, the bright colors, the cool characters and air this
commercial on Saturday mornings.
Target Market

To develop a clear picture of their target market,
businesses create customer profile lists of
