Section II Text Study In general,there are three approaches to targeting: 1.In the undifferentiated strategy,all consumers are treated as the same,with firms not making any specific efforts to satisfy particular groups. Usually,this is the case only for commodities. 2.In the concentrated strategy,one firm chooses to focus on one of several segments that exist while leaving other segments to competitors.For example,some airlines target price sensitive consumers who will have meals prior to boarding and assigned seating for low prices. 3.In contrast,most airlines follow the differentiated strategy:They offer high priced tickets to those who cannot tell in advance when they need to fly. These travelers-usually business travelers-pay high fares but can only fill the planes up partially.The same airlines then sell some of the remaining seats to more price sensitive customers who can buy two weeks in advance
