Reach your Perfect Customer – Buyer Persona A Buyer Persona is a segment of
people within a particular target market that share common demographics and interests.
The idea behind creating a buyer persona is to understand the wants and needs of a specific demographic. You stand a much better chance of communicating and persuading them to take some defined action once you know who they are.
Target market as a grouping of customers with a similar problem.
Buyer Persona then goes one level deeper and tries to group customers within a target market by a particular set of demographics and needs.
Buyer Persona Attributes
An important element in defining buyer personas is to identify any physical and
emotional characteristics within that group. For example, you may uncover certain buying habits or needs based on any one of the following: Gender Education Income Marital Status Occupation Employment Status You may also be able to uncover certain emotional characteristics that will
help you further define your personas. These types of emotional characteristics might include fears, desires and values. Although emotional characteristics can be difficult to uncover, they can also give powerful indicators as to how
to best deliver your marketing message. The personas you create must bebased on actual research from your existing customers and prospects.
The anatomy of a purchase
The content that you deliver on all marketing platforms plays a critical role in every stage of the inbound marketing process, from first introduction so that consumers are aware your company, to the goal of converting leads into customers. The types of content, your marketing game plan to nurture them on this “get to know” journey down the funnel, are often very different from each other.

What How
Content Marketing
Great content is customer centric, and value focused. When content marketing is focused purely on product, it frees up marketing departments to create truly creative campaigns. It is this unbridled creativity that not only drives breakthrough content, but real engagement from your audience.Create an e-book, take a poll, ask for customer videos, create a YouTube channel, an interactive blog, create a forum, have a contest, invite them to a webinar, look into mobile location based services to send your message to those in your proximity, give a deal-of-the-day, tweet tips and trends, create an app, put your QR code everywhere you can, organize a virtual event, send out an Ezine, publish a report.
It starts with your website
Core site content. Search engines love content. They need content to find your site. The more content you have, the more opportunity for your site to be indexed by Google, Yahoo and Bing. We will create compelling core site content, so people will find you.
Evolving content. Even if the search engines find you, people may not care if your site's content is not relevant. The older your content gets, the less relevant your content is. The easiest way to have new content is to have news and opinion (blogs) articles posted on your site. It is not hard to write a blog… it just takes a few minutes.
Site descriptions and tags. Each page on your site will have unique descriptions and tags to help search engines find you.
Compelling graphics. The site content is key for search engines, but the graphics are key for the user experience, We will tag them properly to help the search engines out..
Product information. All of your product information will be on your site. We will make it easy for them to find what they are looking for
Inbound links. We need as many inbound links as we can get. Products, Associations and more
