Concentrated marketing, also called niche marketing, is a strategy in which a firm targets one or a few small segments and aims for a large share of them rather than a small share of a big market. It suits firms with limited resources that understand their niche well.
The buyer decision process has five stages: need recognition, information search, evaluation of alternatives, purchase decision and post-purchase behaviour. Marketers try to influence each stage, for example by providing information during search and reassurance after purchase.
