Your step-by-step guide to explaining the STP process:

In marketing, reaching your audience is the primary way to achieve your business goals, so it’s crucial to focus on targeting the right audience. Understanding your audience isn’t always straightforward, but the STP model simplifies this process by breaking it down into several stages to identify the target segment, understand the audience’s nature, and develop plans for the products or services provided.

What are STP model stages?
