FIR (FAR INFRA RED)

Just like others watch Therapy Watch also is the watch that we see a clock to know what time is now. But the main reason we produce this product is to give us a healthy life, everyday. We always give an excuse that we are busy, don’t have time and more when it’s come about health. Therapy Watch has been design to give us a more healthy body even we are busy.

FIR also helps improve liver function, increase metabolism and remove waste from the body that can lead to weight loss. It also solves the problem by repairing the skin PH balance of the body.

There are many advantage of using a magnet. Magnetic is a substance that produces a form of energy called magnetic fields. Flow of the magnetic field produced naturally in the body from the charges of ions in and out of cells, and the flow of electrical energy Impulse, through the cell membrane. Because blood contains ion, it serves as a conductor of the magnetic field to increase the flow of oxygen and nutrients to the tissues of the body, neck, chest pain, headaches, insomnia and stress. Magnetic therapy is a health supplement non- invasive manner is important.

Generation Y, age between 1977 - 2000. Generation X between 1965 - 1976 and Baby boomers between 1946- 1964. For Therapy Watch our main target are Generation X, Y and Baby Boomers.

Male and female consumers differ in the types of goods they use. Thus, we used this type of segmentation. Our Therapy Watch will have two versions for women and men.

Income is popular demographic variable for segmenting markets. Income level has high influence on consumer’s needs and wants and it determines their buying power. We target wealthy consumers especially to buy Therapy Watch.

Family life-cycle (FLC) segmentation. FLC is a series of stages determined by a combination of age, marital status and the presence of children. Even though people are of the same age and gender, sometimes their needs and wants differ because they are in different stages of the FLC. Therapy Watch will cater to consumers with unique and distinctive advantages. So it will have some uniqueness to suit every stage of the family life cycle.

18

4.1.2 PSYCHOGRAPHIC SEGMENTATION

We have chosen this type segment that divided buyers into different groups based on social class, lifestyle or personal characteristics.

Based on the personality, it reflects a person’s traits, attitudes and habits. Therapy Watch is come in interesting design and can match with customer personalities.

Motives relate to the force that causes people to take certain action. Therapy Watch can make our daily life healthy and save time.

Lifestyle segmentation divides people into groups according to the way they spend their time, the important things around them, their beliefs, income and education. Therapy Watch make people interest in several of this products that influenced by their lifestyle and the goods they consume would also express their lifestyle.
