Personas: Meet Your Visitor
Introduce Your Visitors to Everyone Else
You only have 3 or 4 visitors coming from thousands of different places.
Who are they? Why are they visiting?
What information do they need to take action?How do they like to receive information?
For example…
University of Texas AT&T Conference Center
Penny is the Director of Conferences for a Mietex, a $400 million company located in Houston, Texas.
She will directly influence $300,000 to $400,000 in convention center revenue over time.
METHODICAL: Makes decisions slowly and logically. Needs a great deal of information to take action.
Persona: Penny Planner
What Penny Needs
Room Explorer: Create a series of pages that very logically guides her through the size, cost and layout of the rooms. Each feature should link to more detail. Use of pictures (high quality photography) is important. Focus on the comfort of her guests in describing features.
Convention Explorer: Create a series of pages that very logically takes Penny through the site’s convention facilities. Focus on completeness of offering.
