Buyer Personas

Why People Get Them Wrong

When people say B2B needs to be more like B2C, it’s not always true.

Buyer personas are a good example. Demographics in buyer personas are very useful for B2C but not so useful for B2B. Don’t believe me. Ask Ozzy & Prince Charles:

Then interview them.

Not for a case study, but just to understand their world.
