Abstract:
Market segmentation is one of these concepts that can also be applied to industrial buying behaviour. In this connection one basically has a choice between either using a priori defined segments or finding the biases of consumer segmentation in a set of response related variables through clustering of respondents. This paper shows the use of conjoint measurement for segmenting an industrial market. The potential is illustrated with a description of research carried out for office furniture.
