Dana will answer the question — “Who are we writing for?” Personas are an integral part of marketing and communications strategies, but they often get written off as being too soft.

The answers to your burning marketing questions are out there, living in the hearts and minds of your current and potential clients and customers — you just need to ask the right questions. Let’s stop guessing about who we’re marketing to and start understanding who we need to engage with.
