From the case it is clear that TFC was initially the only channel dedicated solely to fashion.
The need for market segmentation arose due to drop in the TFC ratings to 1.0 due to the increase in competition in the segment. This also saw a fall in the revenue in the company.
The following strategies were suggested by Dana Wheeler:
1. Maintaining a broad appeal to cross segment of Fashionistas, Planners and Shoppers, and Situationalists.
2. Focus more on Fashionistas.
3. Targeting two segments- the Fashionistas and the Shoppers/Planners.
