Whether you’re a persona first-timer or veteran, B2B or B2C, this course is packed with practical tips, real-life case studies, and expert advice to create, use, and roll out game-changing personas.
Course overview.
Personas have the power to make or break your customer marketing efforts. Being able to identify and segment your customers into their respective persona is a must-need skill for customer marketers as it affects everything from how you reach out, types of feedback gathering, and which products to focus on for cross-selling and upselling.
Throughout this course, we’ll be exploring quite literally every element of the persona process. From use cases to persona pre-work, interview guides to data consolidation, and company-wide communication plans to reviewals. You name it, this course has got it.
“One word. WOW!!!! And I mean WOW! I wish I had this when I built personas the first and second time. It would shorten the cycle of making them by weeks. Months.” - Igor Kranjcec, Product Marketing Lead at Lemax
