Slide 3: Overview of Current Customer Segmentation

Before redefining SayPro’s customer segments, it’s important to review the current segmentation strategy. Currently, SayPro may be segmenting customers based on:

• Industry Vertical: Technology, education, customer service, etc.
• Company Size: Small businesses, mid-market, enterprises.
• Geography: Local, national, global reach.
• Customer Needs: Basic solutions, advanced features, cost efficiency, customization.

However, due to rapidly evolving market trends and consumer behavior shifts, this approach may no longer fully address the diverse needs of current and potential customers.
