I ran these inside BIA myself.

I opened the Buyer Intel Accelerator, picked a persona, and ran a live session against it. That session is the first draft: the real research, the buying triggers, the structure. Everything below is the polished version of that draft, not something built from scratch.

Persona Intelligence Briefs

Each bundle below started as one BIA session for that persona. BIA built the first draft. I polished it into three formats: read it, hand it to marketing, or listen to it on your next drive to a meeting.

Persona 01 · Regional / Community Bank · $2B–$50B Assets

Banking CIO

The rep who walks in without knowing the core system, the exam schedule, and the third-party risk process doesn't lose to a competitor. They lose to the bank's own compliance calendar.

Persona 04 · Health System · 500–5,000 Beds · Epic

Healthcare CIO

Ransomware notification windows, HIPAA, TEFCA, and now AI governance sit on top of a stack most reps have never touched. Know the stack before you dial.

Persona 02 · B2B SaaS · Series B–D · $25M–$120M ARR

B2B SaaS CMO

This CMO is already in two budget conversations she didn't start. The rep who walks in knowing her CRO's objections before they're spoken closes faster.

Persona 03 · B2B SaaS · Series B–D · $20M–$150M ARR

B2B SaaS CRO

Missed a quarter. Forecast under a microscope. This is not the call for a generic pitch.
