- 12. know your personas Sue Moore, 33 Coffee Shop Barrista Sue has been running her coffee shop for the last 3 years. She’s located near a busy station, so there are lot of tourists passing by her shop. However, most of her customers come from local businesses. She wants to attract more people to sit outside her shop while they wait for their trains. She likes commuters as they tend to buy more stuff when they are sitting there. She’s not allowed to advertise on her windows as that’s against local regulations. She is allowed to have one sign outside of the shop but keeps it as a default sign as she’s too busy to update it.
