The Buyer Persona Institute sets international quality standards for persona development, to which we commit ourselves by certification.

Persona verification by the Persona Institute:
The right solution when...
... your current personas are not producing results.
Personas often emerge in workshops, based on experience and gut feeling. A shaky foundation.
... no market research budget is available.
Target group research with market and opinion institutes is expensive and often not feasible.
... you don't have time to collect data and create personas.
data-driven personas takes a lot of time: researching, creating surveys, evaluating and visualizing data.
... Web and social analytics data alone are not enough for meaningful personas.
The Persona Institute's data basis provides exactly the data you are still missing. Enriched with existing data, a complete picture of your target group is created.
... you need fast and reliable results.
With our proven method and extensive database, we quickly provide you with precise and reliable data and personas.
... you want to align your company with data-driven decisions.
With precise and up-to-date data, you create the basis for well-founded decisions in all business areas.
