Answer:

Who am I trying to reach?

Step-by-step explanation:

Targeting and segmentation is the process by which a company focuses marketing activities regarding a particular product to a defined customer profile.

Certain criteria like income, age, location, culture and so on can be used as a basis for segmentation.

Basically the question that segmentation and targeting answers is - Who am I trying to reach?

In the given scenario the bicycle repair company conducted segmentation research and then targeted their direct mail coupons for a first bike tune-up to that identified customer segment.

So they answered who they want to sell to.
