Online Quiz: STP Basics

About this quiz

What you’ll practice

Build confidence with the core STP flow: segment the market, evaluate and choose target segments, then define positioning that fits customer needs and competitive reality.

You’ll practice spotting segmentation variables (demographic, psychographic, behavioral, geographic) and translating them into actionable target profiles and positioning statements.

Quiz format & difficulty settings

Each question has 4 options and there’s no timer, so you can focus on reasoning rather than speed.

Choose your question count before you start to run a quick drill or a longer study session, and adjust difficulty to match your level—Mixed blends easy definitions with tougher application and strategy trade-offs.

Common pitfalls to avoid

Many learners confuse segments with personas, or pick targets that are attractive on paper but not reachable or profitable in practice.

Another frequent miss is writing positioning that’s just a slogan—strong positioning is specific, differentiated, and anchored in a real value proposition.

Mixing up segmentation criteria (variables) with segment evaluation (attractiveness/fit)
Targeting too broadly and losing a clear point of difference
Ignoring measurable, reachable, and substantial segment requirements
Confusing positioning with messaging, taglines, or brand voice
Forgetting competitor context when claiming differentiation

How scoring improves your STP thinking

Reviewing explanations helps you connect terms like “undifferentiated vs. differentiated targeting” to real decisions, such as channel choice, pricing fit, and product-market match.

Use missed questions to identify whether you struggle more with definitions (segmentation basics) or with application (choosing targets and defending a position).
