What is a Buyer Persona?
A buyer persona is a research-based depiction that identifies your target customer. This research can include demographics, personality traits, behaviours, needs, interests, challenges, decision-making process, and more. All of which are outlined to help you target and align with your ‘golden customer.’
Effective buyer personas are created from your actual customer data (surveys, 1-on-1’s, Analytics) as well as industry/market research. If done correctly, a persona will help you align content, messaging, platforms, and your overarching value proposition. Consider creating multiple buyer personas if you have more than one customer segment.
Build Your Own Buyer Persona
The why behind creating buyer personas is clear; now it’s time for the how. From an overarching perspective, a buyer persona is simply the person you think about when you create content. There are plenty of ways to create your buyer persona. This package includes a set of Google slides with various persona templates.
