How To Create Personas For Your Target Audience
A firm or business must develop a consumer persona that represents their intended market. They are the ones who purchase your products or services, so they are our target audience. They can be identified by the following factors:
DEMOGRAPHICS:
The customer’s age group, gender, marital status, location, kind of employment, and issues they’ve encountered are all determined by their demographics.
- Age: What is the average age range of your target audience?
- Gender: Is your product or service more suited to one particular gender?
- Location: Where do your ideal clients reside geographically?
- Income Level: What is the typical income for your target demographic?
- Education Level: How much education do your ideal clients normally have?
PSYCHOGRAPHIC:
Consumer qualitative behaviour based on psychological characteristics and attributes is known as psychographic behavior. Values, beliefs, views, and attitudes are all examined in psychographic research.
- Interests and Hobbies: What is your target audience’s passions and interests?
- Values and Beliefs: What principles and values do they believe in?
- Lifestyle: What is their lifestyle like? Are they busy professionals, stay-at-home parents, students, etc.?
- Personality traits: Are they introverted or extroverted? Innovative or traditional?
LIFE STYLE
Customer lifestyle provides information about the interests, culture, and hobbies of the customer. It provides information on how they choose goods and services.
- Where do they normally do their research before making a purchase?
- Do they prefer to shop online or in store?
- What variables affect their purchase decisions? (Price, quality, brand image, etc.)
- How do they prefer to engage with brands? (Social media, email, in person, etc.)
GEOGRAPHIC
Describe the target audience’s geographic location, including their zip code, country, and whether they live in an urban or rural area, etc.
BEHAVIORAL
A behavioral persona is an already known well-defined targeted audience that provides us with insights into what is not functioning effectively.
