Rule 01

Personas are grounded in audience evidence: demographics, behavior, pains, goals, channels, and buying triggers.

Rule 02

Create and analyze are different jobs: one builds a profile, the other finds patterns in audience data.

Rule 03

Updates must incorporate new data instead of rewriting the persona from scratch.

Rule 04

Persona output is an ICP profile marketers can reuse for content, ads, and lead qualification.
