Persona:\u00a0<\/em>Identifying characteristics of a segment of individuals.<\/p>\n

General Demographics:<\/em> Identifying characteristics including age, gender, income, experience, health, location, and more.<\/p>\n

Psychographics<\/em>: Identifying characteristics around attitudes, fears, emotions, needs, desires, aspirations and more.<\/p>\n

Attrition Drivers<\/em>: Those actions and communications that drive a person from becoming a client.<\/p>\n

Why is that?\u00a0 I want to know that they match my needs and help me succeed.<\/p>\n

For my clients, I always ask them to describe their most valuable clients. 100% of the time within the first few seconds, I get a blank stare and then “Well, I am not really sure. I can tell you who I like talking to or who I can get talking!”<\/p>\n

Interesting, the word VALUABLE is what is throwing them off. Why? <\/strong><\/p>\n

\n
1. Most managers don’t look at the data<\/strong> and let data tell the story. Managers tell the story of the client based on interactions with the client and that is it.\u00a0 Typically, the managers are so very wrong.<\/li>\n
2. Valuable is not defined<\/strong> by the manager. It can mean the “most”… most profitable, most notable, most referenceable, etc. Management has not decided how to categorize value.<\/li>\n
3. Focus<\/strong> – well this is the one that I see the most. Managers look at how they suspect the client feels, what revenue, sales, and any top line number are, and detail a story that makes the manager feel good. Managers are not focused on what makes a client an amazing client.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

   • You may choose one or many Personas on who will benefit most from what you offer. One of my clients was able to create three personas based on the types of treatment the client wanted. Make sure you are categorizing how your client needs you to see them.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

     \n
     • Building a persona starts with looking at your clients patterns and habits.\u00a0 Listen to each client and start to identify patterns in what they say and how they respond. You may also choose to do surveys, interviews and just witness if they send referrals or offer testimonials.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

       [\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1569439071865{margin-bottom: 0px !important;}”]Once we gathered the data, start sorting through your findings and start to categorized the types of clients.\u00a0 What are their generalizing characteristics?\u00a0 How do they pay you?\u00a0 Do they have common ailments, fears, social behaviors, etc.<\/p>\n

       As you develop the personas, remember that they will change over time as will you!\u00a0 Perhaps you update your intake forms to capture more relevant data?<\/p>\n

       The key is to stay REVELANT with your clients and the only way to do that is to really understand them!<\/strong><\/em>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
