For example, you might have a customer base made up of 70% 20-somethings, 10% senior citizens and 20% teens. Think about who you\u2019re most likely to serve and also audiences you\u2019d like to reach in the future.<\/p>\n<p>Start by figuring out your audience segments and who they are. Create buyer personas for each customer type. While you should throw the majority of your efforts toward the bigger portion of your audience, you can certainly expand your customer base by focusing on the other elements, too. The better you know your customers, the better you can serve their needs and meet their expectations.<\/p>\n<h2>Can a Business Have Multiple Target Audiences?<\/h2>\n<p>Businesses absolutely can and do have more than one audience segment. One of the best ways to grow your revenue is by reaching new audiences. However, you should also focus on building loyalty from your existing client base. Growing a brand requires a balancing act between retaining current patrons and adding new ones.<\/p>\n<p>In a study, around <a href=\"https:\/\/designerly.com\/relationship-marketing-connects-better-your-audience\/\">80% of customers<\/a> indicated they bought from a brand about three times before they felt loyalty to the company. Work on perfecting your reach with each audience. Your job doesn\u2019t stop once they buy. You want to develop relationships over time. Here are some tips on how you can serve more than one group at a time and keep them engaged with your brand.<\/p>\n<h2>1. Use the Right Language<\/h2>\n<p>If you understand your audience, choosing language they\u2019ll relate to should be a bit easier. For example, if you\u2019re talking to someone in the UK, they\u2019ll call a shopping cart a trolley or buggy. Make sure you dig into language differences between locations and generations.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-thumbnail wp-image-2786\" src=\"https:\/\/www.webdesign-inspiration.com\/article\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/cricut-600x400.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"400\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Source: https:\/\/cricut.com<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/cricut.com\/en-us\/\">Cricut<\/a> has audiences of all ages. They use fairly straightforward words for their headline and call to action (CTA) buttons. However, they draw in younger users with the pops of color from paper flowers one can create on their Cricut Maker.<\/p>\n<h2>2. Train Your Agents<\/h2>\n<p>It\u2019s natural to have a list of frequently asked questions (FAQs) that your chatbot or agents can answer easily. What about the customers who don\u2019t quite fit into the FAQs file, though? You must train your live agents to answer questions outside the norm.<\/p>\n<p>You may even want to route leads based on their audience segmentation so the person they speak with is extremely knowledgeable about the product or service based on their specific needs.<\/p>\n<h2>3. Use Multiple CTAs<\/h2>\n<p>When you have multiple audiences, you need separate CTAs to move them toward the next phase of the buyer\u2019s journey. One sales funnel will go in one direction, and the other in a different one.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-thumbnail wp-image-2789\" src=\"https:\/\/www.webdesign-inspiration.com\/article\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/nuvoair-600x400.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"400\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Source: https:\/\/www.nuvoair.com<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nuvoair.com\/\">Nuvoair<\/a> has customers who are patients and ones who are doctors. They highlight the two areas of their website by having two side-by-side CTA buttons. One reads, \u201cI am a patient.\u201d The other reads, \u201cI am a doctor.\u201d<\/p>\n<h2>4. Personalize Content<\/h2>\n<p>Use cookies and user accounts to keep track of past browsing behavior or purchase history. You can then serve up fresh material when people come back to your page. For example, if someone last searched for peach dresses, you can show them any new peach dresses in inventory since their last visit.<\/p>\n<p>You should greet people by name and take them to what you think they\u2019re most interested in seeing. You can also offer options and let new visitors go through a series of options toward what they want to know or see.<\/p>\n<h2>5. Quiz Visitors<\/h2>\n<p>It\u2019s better to have one centralized website than multiple ones. However, you can separate information into sections of your site and guide the person where they need to go. Start by asking questions and moving the user forward after each response.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-thumbnail wp-image-2792\" src=\"https:\/\/www.webdesign-inspiration.com\/article\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/skincare-600x400.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"400\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Source: https:\/\/www.sephora.com\/beauty\/skin-care-quiz<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.sephora.com\/beauty\/skin-care-quiz\">Sephora<\/a> offers a skincare finder quiz. It starts by asking how you want to shop and moves through a series of questions from there. Each selection moves the user forward along the buyer\u2019s journey.<\/p>\n<h2>6. Create Multiple Landing Pages<\/h2>\n<p>Don\u2019t be afraid to have multiple landing pages for your users. A landing page should have a single goal so adding too many audiences to a page may not work well. It\u2019s best to have a single audience and purpose for each landing page on your site.<\/p>\n<p>By creating more than one landing page, you\u2019ll also have an easier time tracking results from marketing campaigns. Tweak any pages not getting the results you\u2019d like and repeat successful ones with the same audience.<\/p>\n<h2>7. Share Relevant Photos<\/h2>\n<p>One of the biggest challenges with serving multiple target audiences is finding photos relevant to both. You can separate into different sections if you\u2019d like, which also can help move the user toward their next step in the buyer\u2019s journey.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-thumbnail wp-image-2795\" src=\"https:\/\/www.webdesign-inspiration.com\/article\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/share-photos-600x400.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"400\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Source: https:\/\/coppercreekcanyon.com\/residential-commercial-design-projects<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/coppercreekcanyon.com\/residential-commercial-design-projects\/\">Copper Creek Canyon<\/a> offers a gallery of their home design projects. They separate them into residential and commercial. It makes sense that a commercial client might want to see the way they\u2019ve designed homes to get a feel for the overall style and vice versa.<\/p>\n<h1>Find Relationships Between Audiences<\/h1>\n<p>Look for similarities between audiences here you can share content with both and have some crossover. At the same time, separate things that are vastly different, such as the pricing structure for bulk products for businesses and the cost to individual consumers. With a bit of extra work, you\u2019ll have two or more separated buyers\u2019 journeys on your site. You\u2019ll easily meet the needs of all your audience members.<\/p>\n<p>_<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-thumbnail wp-image-2770\" src=\"https:\/\/www.webdesign-inspiration.com\/article\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/eleanor-150x150.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.webdesign-inspiration.com\/article\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/eleanor-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.webdesign-inspiration.com\/article\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/eleanor-120x120.jpg 120w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/eleanorhecks.com\/\">Eleanor<\/a> is the founder and managing editor of Designerly Magazine.
