Study Notes
Demographic Segmentation
- Demographic segmentation categorizes consumers based on population size, structure, and distribution.
- Population size refers to the number of individuals in a society.
- Population structure considers factors like age, income, education, and occupation.
- Population distribution looks at where people live geographically (e.g., region, urban/rural, suburban).
Global Population Growth
- Global population growth is unevenly distributed.
- Many advanced economies experience negative population growth, relying on immigration to offset this.
- Examples include Japan and Germany.
- Longevity increases the proportion of older individuals, notably, the "baby boomer" generation (born after WWII).
- Global population growth is substantial overall.
