Buyer Persona Research

To be effective, buyer persona research needs to uncover more than just a shallow profile. They need to dig into key motivators, pain points, jobs-to-be-done, and how the personas interact with other roles in B2B buying decisions. Today’s sales process is largely independent, with 68% of buyers preferring to research on their own before creating a shortlist. If your website doesn’t connect with your buyer’s priorities, or your content doesn’t show up where they are looking, you are likely to lose a lot of prospects that could have been leads. Cascade Insights’ B2B Buyer Persona Research gets you the information you need to effectively reach and persuade your buyers. Our Approach to Buyer Persona Research Buyer personas are table stakes for B2B marketers. Unfortunately, many versions are so templated, generic, or irrelevant that they don’t provide information you can actually leverage to increase leads and sales. We know that fluffy findings like “the CMO delegates decisions” or obvious statements like “the CIO reads the Wall Street Journal” won’t meaningfully impact your sales or marketing messaging.  We never use a template. Instead, we design our studies to best address your specific business objective.
