Concentrated Marketing
It is often argued that concentrated marketing is suitable for small firms. The concept suggests that large companies can also benefit and describes this approach of selling products to a specific consumer group in more detail.
Technique Overview
Concentrated Marketing Definition
A concentrated market is one in which a firm pursues a large share of one or a few sub-markets (Kotler and Armstrong, 2009). It is a method that repositions products or companies into small, profitable and homogeneous market segments that have been largely ignored or neglected by others. This positioning is based on the integrated marketing concepts and distinctive competencies that the company possesses (Percy, 2008).
