EP 4: Customer Avatars for Target Marketing
Join host Tammy Venneri and co-host Laura Gaetani in this episode that covers how to create a customer avator.
Regardless of how long you've been in business, creating and referring to your customer avatar will be a "guiding light" for your marketing efforts, including where you spend your time and money trying to reach your core customers.
From general demographics to psychographic traits, we walk through the basics of defining who your core customer is, where they live, how old are they, what is their lifestyle, occupation, budget and level of expertise in reference to your mission, product and standards.
Join us in creating an avatar of your own, a representation you can use to guide you through your small business marketing efforts and product lineup.
