FINALLY someone who gives a concrete and full example! Every other video or article I watched just talked about principles and theory, but never showed how to really apply them. Thanks, such a game-changing video!

Unbelievable. I paid for an online Business Branding course and got stuck at the brand positioning part. I was looking for a better explanation for the Audience Persona and I found it. You did a great job explaining it! Better than my instructor.

Thanks a lot Vince, we're glad to hear this resonated with you! stay tuned to our channel for more videos like this!
Showing sample of Quantitative and Qualitative data collected and Persona Groups would really help greatly. That's needed to creating User Persona which is explained well.
Today is the last day of my assignment!! I've to prepare two user Personas and so far I didn't understand anything but thank you. OMG. You've explained it so easily. Thank you. You're a real savior. Subscribed immediately!!❤️❤️❤️
Really loved the way you guys explained user personas in detail! Cheers!
Nice but... I will always add the photo at last., for me a face (and a name) add so much power to a persona that it will already create bias in terms of their personality, I will highly recommend to start by the their needs, frustrations and goals.
From Egypt, I deeply appreciate your sharing for information and simplifing it for us💜
Hats off to your teaching style. Really loved it......
Thank you for the info! I am on my way to expanding my product to thousands of users as it reached success in a small group of companies.

Great content, good explanation, but to much focus on you as a person, the video should show more content on explaining the idea, diagrams, tables, examples etc. But most of the time it's your face. Don't get me wrong, you are nice.

How do I determine the most important group from which I must form a persona?

Great information, but the camera angle is something out of a horror movie, I literally spent all the video in comment section not being able to look at you. Good tip is to position camera at face level and not raise the chin. If you look at 3:17 - 3:20 when she lovers the chin how much of a difference that makes. Ideally, you would also want to get rid of the extensive light flare in the eyes.

i barely able to create one persona, how can i manifest multiple of these like the protagonist?
Could you possibly read more from a teleprompter? Use an avatar next time and save the time.

Hey Onizuka, we can guarantee it's not that track if that helps. We use StripSound for all of our backing tracks.
The music is distracting and the knowledge is very condensed but not clear and concise enough.

This doesn't show how to gather or implement any of the research into a persona and makes it all seem like assumptions.
She's got a master's degree and is earning $65K a year?
@annanabil73
2 жыл бұрын
Yup a master's degree leads to jobs like production chemist, medicinal chemist, lab technician, and community college professor (most colleges require a doctorate). The average salary is $69K across the US, but if she lives in a poor state she would get paid as low as $51K.
Wait, so personas are fake people? I thought your supposed to use real people that you have interviewed.
I got intimidated in only 15 seconds of the video. Damn, she looks so scary. But thank you for the information tho
Super boring stuff. All this is wrong.
Video content is great but your hair is very distracting. Please try a conditioning treatment or a hair moisturizer maybe just try less chemicals. I could not stop thinking about how damaged your hair looks. Hate to say it but just being honest.
Poor really poor presentation sorry to tell please be slow in your presentation.
