The Power of Personas in Design
Personas are incredible design tools. They help us:
👤 Better understand our ideal customers or users
🎯 Target ads, copy, and images to the right audience
🧐 Conduct research and iterate to refine who we're going after
By creating personas, we start a process of research that gets better with testing and iteration.

Swim lanes are a design methodology
They aren't just for swimming pools. 🏊♀️
🤔 They're a great tool to understand processes and connections over time and use cases
🔍 By mapping out different steps and crossing over between lanes, you can see the journey, touch points, and overlaps in one diagram
💬 Use the swim lanes to drive discussions and inform business cases, like new product launches

Journey mapping is a powerful tool
They help us understand the CX
🔎 Different methods can be used to collect data for the journey mapping process
🤔 Once data is collected, brainstorming sessions can begin to create multiple mappings
🌍 Different overlays can be used, such as revenue or touch points, to provide contextual information
