ABSTRACT

This research was designed to identify the effects of market segmentation on firm’s performance (a case study of Globacom communications).

Theoretically, the primary motive of a firm carrying on market segmentation exercise is to develop a better understanding of the total market place, make a rational choice of market segment that best fits the company’s capabilities and developing strategies, policies and programs to meet the needs of different segments profitably and to give the company a distinct competitive advantage. To determine if market segments affect a firm’s performance, eighty five (85) staff from seventeen (17) different retails outlets in Lagos were randomly selected for the study. A structured questionnaire was use to collect data respondents.

The data was analyzed using simple percentage while the Pearson correlation coefficient was used in testing the hypothesis.

The researcher found out that market segmentation generates profits to an organization. The analysis also showed that market segmentation improves the performance of an organization. The researcher also recommended that Globacom communications should undertake marketing researches to improve in its overall market segmentation exercise. Also a competitive analysis should be undertaken to assess both the strength and weaknesses competitor within a segment in order to identify the areas of opportunity for the firm.
