Imagine your perfect customer walking into your store. Now, let’s give them a name, a backstory, and even a favorite color! Customer personas are detailed profiles of your ideal buyers, built using the data you gathered. This helps you humanize your target audience, understand their motivations, and craft marketing messages that speak directly to their aspirations and desires. 

Leverage 3D to create even more realistic personas: 

3D Avatars: Create 3D avatars that represent your ideal customers. Use these avatars to virtually place them in different rooms with your furniture, further personalizing the customer journey. 

2.4 Market Research Techniques: Unveiling What Makes Your Audience Tick 

“The aim of marketing is to know and understand the customer so well the product or service fits them and sells itself.” – Peter Drucker 

Effective market research isn’t magic (although it might feel like it sometimes!). It’s a combination of primary research (surveys you create) and secondary research (existing data and trends). Interviews, focus groups, and data analysis are your secret weapons for gathering actionable insights. By using these techniques in conjunction with 3D modeling, you’ll gain a deep understanding of your target audience, allowing you to make smarter marketing decisions and develop furniture people will truly love.
