💡 Key Topics: ✦ The year-long ramp: when nobody has written down who the customer is, every new salesperson takes about a year to get up and running ✦ The persona access gap: only about half of people making content for sales teams say sales and marketing can get to the same buyer personas, and only 39% say sales uses the right content at the right time (Content Marketing Institute). That's marketers grading their own homework. ✦ Why "Marketing Mary loves hiking" isn't research: a stock photo, a job title and a quote add up to a nice-looking guess ✦ The Superhuman question: "How would you feel if you could no longer use Superhuman?" Focusing on the 22% who said "very disappointed" pushed that group to 33%, then 58% (Rahul Vohra's own account, no control group) ✦ Why the founder's head is the best starting point you have, and useless to everyone else until it's written down ✦ Why "businesses that want to grow" is wishful thinking, not a customer profile, and why a tight ICP doesn't mean tight ad targeting (a 2023 study of one Vienna car dealer) ✦ The one thing to do this week: write down who already buys from you or your competitors, then ask your biggest fans who would get the most out of your product
