USAA does a great job at segmenting their customer base and is in the process of working on a marketing structure to best fit each group. Each generation and culture learns a little differently and varying income level and education affect your ability to have and obtain knowledge on certain subjects.

I was sent to Gainesville, Georgia to market to all the businesses, doctors’ offices, and local restaurants in the area, we were sent out in groups of three to let the all the companies know that Costco would be opening in Buford soon.
