When planning a marketing strategy, it is important to understand where and how to reach your audience, whether the goal is creating a wider and more targeted social media presence or increasing users’ traffic to your website. In order to secure a successful online promotion/campaign, you must make sure you are targeting the right individuals, and this is where persona research becomes necessary.
This type of research normally follows a market research phase and it focuses on creating the profile of an online persona that represents an archetypal customer/client. Planning a marketing strategy with this persona in mind will help you to optimise the online promotion of your business, service and products, as you will only be targeting who will most likely be interested in them.
This means that through both quantitative and qualitative research, your marketing team can identify the most suitable personas and ignite useful discussions around the customer, which will lead to more effective decision making.
We held a webinar on this topic, so that you can get a better understanding of what creating an online persona, and therefore an ideal target audience, entails. In the webinar, we also explored how this social profiling might help you find the best influencers to collaborate with through two common practices: influencer discovery and influencer outreach. Finally, we shared useful tips on how to apply your research findings to your marketing practices.
Among the themes and topics that were explored, you can expect the following:
- What is persona research and why is it important for your business: You will learn how this type of research deepens your understanding of online users.
- How to get started: This webinar will show you the first steps you will need to take to carry out this type of research.
