Best Practices

Data Sources for Personas

  • Sales Team Input - Win/loss analysis, common objections

  • Analytics - Demographics, behavior patterns
  • Social Listening - LinkedIn, communities, forums
  • Review Sites - G2, Capterra, Trustpilot reviews
  • Competitor Analysis - Who are they targeting?

Validation Checklist

  • [ ] Based on real customer data, not assumptions
  • [ ] Sales team recognizes and agrees with personas
  • [ ] Includes actual customer quotes
  • [ ] Covers full buying committee (not just champion)
  • [ ] Addresses both rational and emotional factors
  • [ ] Includes specific messaging guidance
  • [ ] Updated within last 6 months

Common Mistakes to Avoid

  • Creating too many personas (3-5 is ideal)
  • Making personas too generic
  • Ignoring the "blocker" persona
  • Assuming B2B decisions are purely rational
  • Not updating personas as market changes
  • Creating personas without sales team input

Integration

Works well with:

  • marketing-strategy-pmm - Use personas in positioning
  • content-brief - Create persona-targeted content
  • ad-copy-generator - Write persona-specific ads
  • email-template-generator - Personalized email sequences
  • landing-page-copywriter - Persona-specific landing pages

Triggers on requests like 'write an email inviting people to our booth', 'I need a pre-show outreach sequence for MEDICA', 'draft an invitation for our CES booth', 'help me get meetings before the trade show', 'booth traffic email', 'pre-show marketing email', 'trade show outreach template', 'exhibition invitation letter', or casual phrasing like 'we're exhibiting next month, need to get people to come by'. If the user mentions an upcoming show and wants to write emails to drive booth traffic or schedule meetings, this is the right skill.
