Editorial Review:

Product Description:
Useful to both consumer marketers and business-to-business researchers, this detailed and engaging book delves much more deeply into segmentation than other marketing handbooks. Myers mediates between discussing the intricacies of segmentation and positioning techniques and showing the ways these techniques can be interpreted and used in the real world. The book covers measuring scales, cluster analysis, conjoint analysis, multivariate analysis, CHAID, and classification and regression trees. Other chapters deal with perceptual positioning maps-point and vector, value maps laddering techniques, and quadrant analysis. Myers uses examples to explain research analysis and provides practical information. In addition to explaining how to evaluate results, he provides caveats and explains pitfalls of each technique.



Customer Reviews
Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Buy basic marketing research books before reading this.
Basically, if the reader has a formal background in marketing research, or has a basic business statistics "know-how", then this book could be a refresher, or a reviewer so to speak. Otherwise, the reader could end up scratching head upon reading the chapters that discuss discriminant analysis, F Ratio, CHAID, etc. I would recommend the readers to get a basic marketing research, or Database Marketing books. It covers almost the same topics, just a lot more comprehensible.
