Defining your ideal client

Have you clearly defined and articulated your business’s ideal client?

An ideal client is a detailed representation of the type of customer who would benefit the most from your product or service and provide the highest value to your business.

If you’re not crystal clear on who you want to reach, your marketing activities will be haphazard at best.

We were recently joined by Trudi from marketing consulting agency Vennd to learn more about the importance of defining your ideal client, and the process to go about it.

In this 30 minute session, we learnt about the four steps to defining your ideal client:

  1. Research and data collection

  2. Developing the persona

  3. Aligning your marketing channels

  4. Adjusting your messaging
