Understanding Customer Avatars

The concept of customer avatars, or personas, is crucial for targeted marketing. A customer avatar represents a fictional character that encapsulates the characteristics and behaviors of a brand's ideal customer. Different terms such as ideal customer profile (ICP) or customer profile may be used interchangeably, but they essentially document the type of customer a brand seeks to serve. This helps marketers and businesses align their strategies and messaging more effectively with the needs and preferences of their target market.
