Target audience persona

Name the group and the category. Naise builds a persona with daily frustrations, real objections to buying, and the media they consume, so your copy has something to answer.

The brief Naise works from

From the marketing strategy document and brand profile in this project (or, if none are attached, treat the audience as: who you sell to) build a detailed buyer persona named 'persona name' for demographic group who are interested in category. Include: demographics, the frustrations of their ordinary week, their long-term goal, their specific objections to buying product or service, the media channels they actually consume, and the sentence that would make them close the tab. Mark every field as either given or inferred, and list the three assumptions most worth testing first.

Highlighted words are the blanks you fill in. Leave one empty and Naise uses a sensible default.
