Conceptual Segmentation


Interest Group Building is the New Stage of Social Networks to Expand Markets

The introduction of new products or services requires opening a space in the mind of potential buyers. The unicist approach to marketing includes the development of interest groups, based on unicist conceptual segmentation. This requires understanding the purpose, active function, and energy conservation functions of the buying arguments of the segments included. Here are some ideas on how it can be applied:

Identifying Latent Needs: As you rightly mentioned, the purpose of these interest groups is the satisfaction of latent needs. Understanding these needs is the foundation of creating effective groups. This involves researching the market, potential customers, and current trends to identify unmet needs or wants that the new product or service could address.

Introducing Ideological Change: To create an ideological change, it is vital to communicate the unique value proposition effectively. This could be done through compelling storytelling, demonstrations, and robust arguments about why the new approach is more efficient or beneficial.

Building Critical Mass: Gaining a substantial number of group members is necessary for influence and effectiveness. Strategies to achieve this could include outreach campaigns, engaging with influencers, providing incentives for joining, and fostering an inclusive, welcoming community that aligns with the group’s aesthetic.

Sustaining Groups with Technological Differentiation: In this digital age, any group should leverage the latest technologies to facilitate communication, engagement, and membership growth. This could be through using innovative platforms or tools, or even creating custom tech solutions that enhance the group’s unique value.

Delivering Value: For an interest group to be successful, it needs to consistently deliver value to its members. This could be through exclusive content, access to unique resources, networking opportunities, and other perks that make membership worthwhile.

Segmentation: Understanding that different people have different needs is key. By segmenting the market, interest groups can be created that cater to specific needs and wants. Using data analytics can aid in this segmentation process and help to deliver more personalized experiences.

Credibility and Authority: The organization needs to establish itself as a trusted and authoritative figure. This can be done by delivering consistent value, fostering transparency, demonstrating expertise, and maintaining high standards of ethics and integrity.

Interest group building is not a simple task. It requires a deep understanding of one’s audience, as well as the ability to foster a sense of community and provide ongoing value. But when done effectively, it can be a powerful tool for driving innovation, promoting ideological change, and strengthening customer relationships. Implementing these strategies can help build interest groups that are effective in promoting new products or services, and ultimately, in expanding markets.

Conceptual Marketing in the 4IR

Marketing takes place in the mind of the potential buyer. Therefore, it is necessary to know how the buying process works before a marketing strategy can be defined.

The discovery that the concepts people have stored in their long-term memory drive their actions, allowed developing a conceptual segmentation model that permits finding the buying arguments and developing the complementary selling arguments to drive buying decisions.

Concepts define the root causes of buying processes and also drove to the development of marketing objects and catalyzing objects to drive buying decisions using binary actions.

Conceptual segmentation gives access to the buying argument of potential clients and allows defining clusters that increase notoriously marketing effectiveness. The use of marketing objects and catalysts allows building an empty space in the market and ensuring the functionality of binary actions to influence buying decisions.

Conceptual Marketing became significant with the appearance of the technologies of the 4th Industrial Revolution. Although Conceptual Marketing is extremely effective in all marketing processes, it is unavoidable when it is possible to use the tools of the 4IR.

Some of the companies that use business objects and catalysts are: Airbus, Amazon, Apple, BBC, Boeing, Dassault Systemes, Dupont, Ericsson, Facebook, General Electric, Google, Hilton, Honda, Hyundai, LinkedIn, Lufthansa, Mapfre, Mayo Clinic, Michelin, Novartis, Open Text, P&G, Pfizer, SAP, Siemens, Tata Motors, Toyota, Unilever, Walmart, Walt Disney World and Youtube.

About the Conceptual Short-Term Memory (CSTM)

It has to be considered that any value proposition made to a person is recognized by the Conceptual Short-Term Memory (CSTM) that uses the concepts stored in the Long-Term Memory (LTM). Therefore, the marketing actions that are based on conceptual segmentation increase notoriously their effectiveness.

Unicist Conceptual Marketing

The unicist marketing technologies have been developed at The Unicist Research Institute to manage the root causes of buying processes.

Unicist Conceptual Marketing is an approach based on the use of business objects and the unicist segmentation.

Buying decisions are driven by the concepts individuals have. That is why buying decision are driven by the instantaneous actions of the Conceptual Short-Term Memory that use the information stored as a concept in the long-term memory.

The unicist root cause marketing includes:

Unicist Marketing Strategy: to define the short-term and long-term segmented strategies, including both maximal strategies to grow and minimum strategies to sustain the customer base.

Unicist Root Causes of Buying Processes: to define the root drivers of buying processes, including the conceptual and the functional and psychological drivers.

Maximal & Minimum Marketing Actions: to define the actions and their synchronicity that need to be developed in order to have a critical mass in buying decisions.

Unicist Conceptual Design Groups: to define the concepts that drive the actions of the different segments of the market and define the segmented proposals and actions to be developed.

Benefits of the Unicist Conceptual Marketing:
• Increase of marketing effectiveness

Segmentation is the core of successful marketing actions

Unicist Object Driven Marketing is based on a segmentation that allows, on the one hand, an accurate definition of the “what”, “what for”, “why” and “how” a segment buys, and on the other hand, the transformation of this abstract knowledge into objects to influence the clients and expand the markets.

Unicist Market SegmentationSegments necessarily preexist to segmentation. They cannot be invented, they have to be discovered. The unicist approach to segmentation includes all the levels of processes that happen in the consumer’s mind when making a purchasing decision.

Unicist Object Driven Marketing is the most effective way for marketing because it follows the nature of the consumer’s mind and uses the most powerful technological tools to communicate.

When dealing with human behavior, fundamentals lay the grounding of human attitudes but the environmental and materialistic needs define the drivers of what people desire, want, need and buy.

Unicist ontology considers that the ontology of a functional reality is unique and cross-cultural but its operation varies according to the culture.

That is the reason why “Design globally, operate locally” gains a strong meaning. In this sense, the cross-cultural concepts are called invariables, while the operational shape such invariables take, varies from culture to culture.

Unicist Market Mix is an approach to influence the markets, its segments and individuals in the most profitable way: approaching their nature.

Understanding cultures, segments and products makes the unicist marketing mix approach possible. The unicist marketing mix establishes the successive and simultaneous actions to influence the consumer’s or user’s purchasing decision.
