Episode 249: Creating “Marketing Personas” for your Freelance Translation Business

This is the second part in a series of reruns this summer of episodes with tons of value that you might have missed.

You might have heard about how important it is to create“marketing personas” or “customer avatars” before, and use them when marketing your services. But what are they really, and how can we use them in marketing our translation services. That is what I am discussing with Alessandra Martelli today. Alessandra has a very popular blog with “marketing pills” for translators, and she is also a marketing trainer in the translation industry.

  • What a marketing persona or customer avatar is
  • Why we should develop them for our marketing
  • How we can use marketing personas or customer avatars in marketing our translation services
