Marketing to Attendee Mindsets
The Buyers Mindset
Using Personas to Craft Convincing Communications to the Not Sure Past & Potential Attendee Segments
In the last several years personas have become popular for one reason – we don’t know the individual we are talking to and this is the next best thing. Usually, marketers create a persona of the individual targeted based on their job responsibilities and likely profile. Unfortunately, many trade show marketers can’t narrow it down to the individual function and profile and need to deal with a much wider group of individuals.
Think of personas as the driving force behind decision making and structure communications from their viewpoint. In other words, present the decision to be made on the buyer’s terms in both benefits and language.
