​
Definition

Market segmentation is the process of dividing a target market into distinct groups — by industry, company size, geography, behavior, or need — to enable more targeted messaging, product development, and resource allocation. Market segmentation shapes AI citation targeting. Different segments ask different questions and use different AI platforms at different stages of their journey. A fractional CMO applying segmentation to AI search strategy identifies which query types matter for which segments — and builds the content and entity infrastructure to appear in those specific AI responses rather than optimizing for generic visibility.
