Σύνοψη	Willingness-to-Pay (WTP) estimation encompasses methods for quantifying the maximum price consumers are willing to pay for a product, service, or feature. Developed through advances in marketing research and behavioral economics, WTP estimation helps organizations set optimal prices, allocate marketing budgets, value product features, and understand customer value perception.	Market Segmentation Analysis is a systematic approach to dividing a heterogeneous market into smaller, homogeneous groups (segments) that share similar needs, behaviors, preferences, or characteristics. Developed through advances in statistical clustering and customer analytics, this methodology enables companies to tailor marketing strategies, product offerings, and customer experiences to specific audience groups rather than treating the market as a single entity.
