- {{target market}} (optional): Any known constraints or focus areas for the segmentation.
Instructions

- For each segment, describe its key characteristics, needs, and potential value to the {{specific goal or product}}.
- Recommend the most promising segments to target, justifying your choices with reasoning.
- Suggest tailored marketing strategies for the top segments, including messaging, channels, and offers.

- Stay focused on targeting strategy, not broader marketing planning.
- Flag any data limitations or uncertainties in your recommendations.
Example "Specific goal or product: launching a new fitness app for busy professionals; customer data source: recent survey of 500 potential users."
