Market Segmentation

Understand your targets to activate them better

A segmentation is only valuable if it's activatable. Beyond simply describing a market, our segmentations are designed for action. We analyze your targets 360°: profile, lifestyle, purchase drivers, customer journey and touchpoints. On the qualitative side, our ethnographic approach and analysis of consumer semantic fields enrich this vision. This level of precision guarantees successful activation.

A conviction is defended: a segment is only truly appropriate if embodied by a persona. However, to prevent a simple inert document from being shelved, these personas are made directly operational. They are integrated into two interactive tools:

• A persona creation module: from qualitative transcriptions or segmentation XLS tables, we formulate personas quickly.
• A Persona Bot: a tool through which the target's exact reactions are faithfully reproduced and simulated.
• A concept challenge module: a space where each idea is evaluated against all personas.

AI-enhanced market segmentation identifies high-potential consumer groups and embodies them as activatable personas. Insightquest goes beyond descriptive segmentation: personas become conversational AI agents.

Questions fréquentes

What is IQVentis Persona Bot? +
The Persona Bot is an IQVentis module that transforms personas into AI conversational agents that faithfully reproduce each segment's reactions, lexical field and concerns.
What's the difference between classic and activatable segmentation? +
Classic segmentation produces often unusable statistical clusters. Insightquest's activatable segmentation integrates profiles, motivations, purchase journeys, friction points and activation levers.
Insightquest is an agile and highly innovative company. We used their AI solutions as part of the international segmentation deployment we entrusted to them, enabling us to go from the strategic choice of high-potential segments for our luxury brands to operational activation in communication and retail.
A very effective solution which, in Kering's current context, appears key while enabling considerable time savings and the possibility of going much further in the relevance of messages delivered to our clients and prospects.

Persona

Generate an embodied persona

Personas are designed on the fly:
• From interview or qualitative group transcriptions: a factorial analysis then a segmentation taking into account the concerns and lexical field used by each segment
• From an XLS file of your own segmentation

Persona Bot

Realistic embodiment

Personas are elevated to true interlocutors.
• Authentic responses: we don't offer the long artificial responses of poorly designed synthetic personas.
• Precise mimicry: the interests, concerns and lexical field of targets are rigorously adopted.
• Field application: optimal anticipation of exchanges is made possible, particularly for sales teams.

Concept vs Personae

Challenge and adjust your ideas

A general idea is directly broken down into a granular proposition:
• Flash analysis: the most receptive profiles are identified in under a minute.
• Targeted optimization: the improvement levers needed to convince other segments are highlighted.
• Personalization: concepts are automatically rewritten to match each persona.

Activatable quantitative segmentation

Ad-hoc U&A studies, behavioral and attitudinal segmentation. Each segment is profiled for direct activation: media targeting, retail, CRM.
