Profiling

The key to all communications is knowing the audience you wish to communicate with. At InWords we assist technology vendors to perform audience analysis. Results of the analysis serve to focus publications and promote knowledge transfer.

Before writing anything, we describe each audience by:

  • Identifying audience characteristics

  • Assessing their objectives and needs

  • Planning for subgroups within the audience

To develop audience profiles we use a combination of formal and informal techniques, including:

  • Discussions

  • Surveys

  • Structured Interviews

  • Questionnaires

Example audience profiles include:

  • User Profiles

  • System Administrator Profiles

  • System Engineer Profiles

  • Developer Profiles
