HOW CAN I MAKE USE OF PERSONAS IN A CAMPAIGN?
How can you use research and particularly personas to develop a campaign?
This deck is an example of how Personas can be used to reenergize an already successful cross platform campaign
If you’d like a refresh on what a Persona actually is, or ways in which they can be identified check this out.
Enlightened Marketers appreciate and probably already use Audience Personas to deliver strategic planning insights. BUT they don’t necessarily think about how persona analysis can be used as part of an integrated marketing campaign.
MARRIOT TRAVEL BRILLIANTLY
Reflecting the transformative change happening at its properties, the iconic
Marriott Hotels launched a new multi-year global marketing campaign in June
2013 called “Travel Brilliantly”.
It was a bold move amplifying the brand’s dedication to leading the future of
travel. The dynamic campaign reflects the lifestyle of the next generation of
travelers, who seamlessly blend work and play in a mobile and global world.
The campaign includes:
• TV
• Digital and mobile advertising
• A new brand look and logo
• New website
• Enhanced social media platforms
• Developing new ways of creatively engaging user generated innovation
CAMPAIGN BACK DROP

MEET THE TEAM LEADERS
INTRODUCE COMPETITION BETWEEN THE TRIBES
WATCH THE TEAM LEADERS DO IT FIRST
ENCOURAGE SELF-IDENTIFICATION
They work in the city by day, watch cookery programmes by night and can
be found at food markets at the weekend. They have a gift for numbers, but a passion for all things foodie. Their high-powered jobs leave them feeling
stressed and food is an area of escape, with a growing number of this tribe
ditching their lucrative jobs to start up a food related business venture.
In a snap shot:
73% say they dedicate a large amount of their spare cash towards food
53% are social media voyeurs – they use their channels to read about food
Perhaps unsurprisingly, 55% are trying to lose weight!
Forget the introverted nerd coding from his darkened bedroom – the techy geek
has been replaced by a new breed of Technorati. They’re social, fashionable and using their tech prowess to start
their own businesses.
In a snap shot:
Most likely to spend their money on technology and are the tech influencers
that friends turn to for advice
58% interested in fashion and 23% love shopping
57% work out at the gym or go running regularly
These social butterflies are partial to a selfie and are the heaviest app users
often addicted to SnapChat, Instagram, WhatsApp and Facebook – they’d use
them all at once if they could. They don’t take life too seriously and at this stage of
their life, they prefer to party over anything cultural or academic.
In a snap shot:
60% say they are always up for a good party
They have short attention spans and strong self-esteem, with almost 40%
saying they would rate themselves as attractive and well groomed
Only 30% read books in their spare time
A marathon is no longer enough for this group of fitness fans – it’s all
about pushing limits and smashing PB’s! Competitive Challengers are part of a movement, they are the
driven people who sign up for likes of Iron Man and take trips all over the world to take part in competitions. The challenges are social too, with many taking group trips abroad to
compete and taking to social media to share experiences and war
wounds.
In a snap shot:
They prefer adventure holidays, with a third opting for backpacking trips
27% aren’t interested in technology – apart from listening to music as they
work out
Not surprisingly, 1 in 4 describe themselves as very energetic!
These fashion forward, savvy self-employed city dwellers are likely to have
had a career redirection after having children or a sabbatical. They like to
blog, tweet and engage via social media, and many have their own websites and
blogs. They tend to work alone and have a real passion for fashion.
In a snap shot:
70% put a huge importance on personal image and love to shop in vintage shops,
charity shops and on eBay
Interested in the environment with 69% regularly recycling
Avid mini breakers taking up to 10 UK trips a year
