One of the strategies applied by the company to dominate the market amid fierce competition is to target the target market (market segmentation). Market segmentation is to divide the market into subdivisions of groups of people and institutions as consumers and customers who have similarities in responding to products and services sold or marketed by companies. The research method used in scientific research is a method of literature review, namely the method by collecting data by reading books and literature related to the subject matter.
