In this podcast, you're going to learn:

• what behavioral segmentation is
• the benefits of using behavioral segmentation in your marketing strategy
• 3 key case studies that exemplify its uses and benefits 

Long gone are the days where brands and marketers would have to guess the needs of consumers. Big data and market segmentation have changed that. Now we are able to gather consumer data in huge volumes and analyze it to build bespoke, valuable, engaging content, that sees brands connect with consumers on a more personal level.

As the name states, behavioral segmentation entails dividing and grouping consumers based on their behavior. Behavior counts for both online and offline actions but, in this podcast, we focus on digital behavior.

Behavioral segmentation, in the digital world, means segmenting users based on their online actions, i.e. behavior on a website or app. This normally includes things like the amount of time they spend on your website, whether they’re new or returning users, how frequently they interact with your brand, which items are looked at or added to their basket or playlist, and this list goes on.

Behavioral segmentation does what it says on the tin, and it's an essential tool for marketers in all fields.

The global pandemic has changed the way we live our lives, leaving us locked up at home in the hopes of saving the lives of our fellow humans.

But the crisis has also had a big impact on the way we conduct business; across the globe shops, bars, restaurants and more have had to shut their physical locations, which, in many cases, leaves them unable to serve their customers.

It's unclear what these closures will mean in the long-term, but it's certain that at least some businesses will have to close permanently due to a lack of revenue... unless they find an answer to this problem.

The answer? Digital transformation.

The only way that fully-offline retail businesses will survive this crisis is by getting online to reach their customers in a new way.

This podcast will cover how digital transformation tactics can save your business in times of global panic, ensuring you have the cash-flow to reopen your doors when the time comes.

So, what are these digital transformation tactics? Well, first off, you must think about the basics:

- Online SEO
- Website usability & functionality
- Product cataloguing in an e-store
- Payment methods

Once that's all set up, you can get down to the real juicy part: e-commerce personalization!

Using a combination of personalization and segmentation tactics, both on your website and across the web, to ensure your customers receive the most personalized experience possible. 

Examples including: 

• Homepage Personalization + Lifecycle Segmentation 
• Product View Personalization + Psychographic Segmentation 
• Email Personalization + Behavioral Segmentation: 
• Digital Ads Personalization + Behavioral Segmentation

Geographic segmentation is undoubtedly one of the most effective forms of market segmentation for any brand looking to go global.

Even local brands can benefit from geographic segmentation. Much like with demographic segmentation, alone it can seem quite clinical; objective with no insight into the personalities of consumers, but when paired with the likes of behavioral or psychographic segmentation, the possibilities are endless.

Marketing has changed a lot over the last 50 years, so it makes sense that the marketing mix, which we use to steer our efforts, has changed too, right?

In the 1960s, Jermone McCarthy established his revolutionary model The 4Ps; these are: 

• Product
• Place
• Price
• Promotion

However, in recent times, critics of the model have pointed to it becoming outdated. Theorists such as Brian Fetherstonhaugh, now call for a total overhaul of the marketing mix to replace the 4Ps with the 4Es.

But what are the 4Es?

In the 4 E's model: 

• Product becomes Experience 
• Place becomes Every Place
• Price becomes Exchange 
• Promotion becomes Evangelism 

This model is founded on the principle that the customers have seized control of the market place. We now operate within a customer-centric, experience economy. 
Audiences are more diverse and demanding now than ever before. And our job, as marketers, has shifted its focus away from selling products and toward creating sublime, end-to-end customer experiences. 

How Can You Implement the 4Es of Experiential Marketing?

Samee & Larimo put forward a model for creating emotional and memorable experiences for consumer audiences, believing that these 4 steps are the cornerstone of experiential marketing: 

1) Offering or stimulus

2) Interaction between the customer and company

3) Experience and value co-creation

4) Lasting value

Forbes also recommends staying ahead of the curve by understanding and, where possible, implementing the current trends of experiential marketing such as Immersive Experiences, Virtual Reality, and A.I & Machine Learning.
