Customer persona

📝 Introduction

When considering the ideal customer for a platform that connects startups with micro and nano influencers for brand promotion, it's crucial to focus on startups seeking cost-effective, authentic marketing solutions and influencers looking to grow their presence and monetize their influence. Startups are often constrained by budget and are in dire need of marketing strategies that offer high ROI. Micro and nano influencers, on the other hand, offer the perfect blend of authenticity and audience engagement, often at a lower cost compared to more prominent influencers. Understanding the needs, challenges, and goals of these two distinct groups is essential for creating a service that effectively bridges the gap between them.
