Segmentation, targeting and positioning (STP) are important concepts in a marketing strategy that can help UMKM identify and reach target markets more effectively. This study aims to analyze the application of STP in the marketing strategy of UMKM in Indonesia. The research method used is descriptive analysis by collecting data through literature studies and interviews with MSME owners and experienced marketing practitioners.
