"Having worked first hand with the Eisenbergs on mapping our customers' critical paths and creating scenario narratives, I can confidently say the Buyer Legends process works. My team's focus at Google is on acquiring SMB advertising clients. And if you've ever worked with these types of businesses, you know there is huge diversity through the spectrum of small and medium businesses. We'd miss opportunities and gaps by over-aggregating (i.e. taking too high level a view) though often the challenge was in effectively communicating our insights. The Buyer Legends framework allowed us to more effectively focus our efforts, improving the bottom line. And equally important, to make a more compelling case for change with our marketing, engineering and product colleagues." Paul Jeszenszky Head of Global B2B Digital Marketing Center of Excellence, Google "The most clear-headed and useful guide ever for developing relevant and resonant stories about your business." Jay Baer President, Convince & Convert "Buyer Legends introduced me to a structured process which uses storytelling techniques to align our brand story to our customers experiences. With so many of our customers having an unique experience every day on Airbnb, it is our task to collect and communicate a collective narrative in the Airbnb brand story. While the Airbnb storyboarding technique, as described in the introduction, gives a clear overview of the customers journey, the motives of our customers and their experiences are many. With global differences on how people travel, making their decision where to stay, and experience the more local hospitality Airbnb provides, Buyer Legends is the marketing tool which binds Persona's, storyboards and our brand story. This is a powerful combination." Dennis Goedegebuure Head of Global SEO, Airbnb"
