MK99 – Big Data 1 
Big data & cross-platform analytics 
MOOC lectures Pr. Clement Levallois
MK99 – Big Data 2 
What you will learn today 
1. 
The role of segmentation in the marketing plan 
2. 
Techniques for segmenting 
3. 
Segmentation: beyond the marketing plan
MK99 – Big Data 3 
How to market the right product to the right people? 
We have different tastes! 
Your fancy product or service 
I have a limited set of features!
MK99 – Big Data 4 
STP: Segmentation → Targeting → Positioning 
1. 
Segmentation 
– 
First, cut the crowd into segments of customers with similar characteristics 
2. 
Targeting 
– 
Evaluate the attractiveness of each segment, select most interesting ones. 
3. 
Positioning 
– 
Creating a value proposition for each of the targeted segments
MK99 – Big Data 5 
How to segment in practice? 
1. 
Get market data 
2. 
Develop measures of association 
3. 
Identify and remove outliers 
4. 
Form segments 
5. 
Profile segments and interpret results 
Source: Principles of Marketing Engineering 2nd ed by Lilien et al., 2013, p. 83.
MK99 – Big Data 6 
Example: segmenting in the car industry 
1. 
Get market data 
– 
For example, data on car drivers from consumer panel providing info on their demographics, tastes and needs 
2. 
Develop measures of association 
– 
This means creating a measure of “which customer is similar to which” in terms of their demog., tastes, etc. 
– 
For example, families with young children will be roughly similar in terms of demographics, needs and budget. 
3. 
Remove outliers 
– 
Remove car drivers that have extreme values (the one car driver that needs a race car, etc.) 
4. 
Form segments 
– 
Use analytical techniques to create groups of car drivers based on their associations. Also called “clusters” or “communities”. 
5. 
Profile segments and interpret results 
– 
Groups have now been found automatically. Identify what these groups mean and how they show a path for action.
MK99 – Big Data 7 
Example of a nice segmentation 
- Each ball represents a car driver. 
- Segments of car drivers are shown in different colors. 
- A link between two car drivers indicates that they are “strongly similar”, in terms of their characteristics 
 Individuals with strong associations landed in the same groups 
 Groups are neatly differentiated 
 We identified a clear meaning for each group 
Families with young children 
Single men with sports tastes 
Professionals who need pick-ups
MK99 – Big Data 8 
Tools for segmentation 
1. 
The qualitative approach 
Relying on experts from the industry. Qualitative insights are always key! 
2. 
Quantitative approaches 
a) Supervised or non supervised? 
Supervised: the number of clusters is pre-chosen by the analyst. 
Non-supervised: the number of clusters is left to determine by the analytical method itself. 
b) Hierarchical or partitioning? 
Hierarchical (see next slide) 
Partitioning (see in two slides)
MK99 – Big Data 9 
Hierarchical clustering (here, with a bottom-up approach) 
1. All car drivers Their colors represent their different characteristics 
2. First level of clusterization 
Drivers showing the strongest similarities are grouped together 
3. Second level of clusterization 
Clusters with the strongest similarities are grouped 
4. Third level of clusterization 
Clusters of level 3 with the strongest similarities are grouped 
Note 1: this figure is called a dendogram 
Note 2: this technique does not scale up well.
MK99 – Big Data 10 
Partitioning (here, k-means clustering) 
1 
2 
All car drivers 
Same car drivers, mapped on a chart according to their characteristics (“revenue” and “ecologically conscious”) 
Note: here we simplify with just 2 characteristics. Of course, k-means can include all the relevant features of your data) 
3 
“Show me 3 clusters” 
“Ok now show me just 2 clusters” 
ecologically conscious 
revenue 
revenue 
revenue 
ecologically conscious 
ecologically conscious 
How does it work? 
- 
The algo chooses the clusters that make the smallest distance between the car drivers of the cluster and the cross. 
- 
Can be implemented in Excel.
MK99 – Big Data 11 
Partitioning (here, community detection in networks) 
1 
2 
All car drivers 
Same car drivers, represented as a network: 
A connection between 2 car drivers means they share common characteristics 
Communities detected by an algorithm and represented visually with different colors: The algorithm identifies groups of individuals which share many connections, and which have relatively fewer connections with the rest. 
Can be implemented in Gephi
MK99 – Big Data 12 
Before leaving: Segmentation is useful beyond the marketing plan 
Segmentation / Clustering / Community detection: 
-> Useful to understand large datasets in general: 
- Reveals groups, relations between groups 
- With the network approach, can even point to the position of single individuals in each group (are they central? Do they bridge to other segments?) 
-> Useful for operational marketing (ex: email campaigns), not just strategic product launch!
MK99 – Big Data 13 
Summary 
• 
Segmentation transforms a crowd of data into sub- groups, enabling targeting and positioning. 
• 
Traditional and recent approaches to segmentation are available in click-and-point software (Excel, Gephi) 
• 
Segmentation is useful for operational decisions as well – not just the big strategic product development
