Understanding Your Shoppers’ Behavior Matters
You have consumer segmentation, why do you need a shopper segmentation?
A shopper segmentation looks at needs, attitudes, and behaviors when choosing and purchasing a product as opposed to a consumer segmentation that focuses on needs, attitudes, and occasions when using a product.
Shoppers and Consumers – what’s the difference?
Shoppers and consumers can be different people, but they can also be the same person. In a nutshell, the shopper is the chooser, and the consumer is the user.
