To have one set of clearly defined and communicated tradie personas so that all employees are laser-focused when it comes to helping their customers.

hipages engaged Tortoise & Hare to help design their personas, after having defined and developed the persona segments internally through research and insights.
Working with the persona data and information provided, Tortoise and Hare did a complete copy review to align with the hipages tone of voice and enhance to give life and personality to the tradie personas. Images were then sourced to represent each persona and put a face to the name before work commenced on designing the suite of assets in line with the hipages brand guidelines.
Tortoise & Hare delivered a suite of assets to the client to share across their business in a number of formats.
A fully editable Google Slides presentation, including long and short-format content options, along with digital display screens and large-format posters, will be rolled out across the hipages business, making their personas visible and prominent in the minds of all employees.
