Our definition of a compromise is not related to cross-sector cooperation, fundraising or cultural diplomacy only. We see it in between of the needs of our audiences and the visions of curators and programmers. It seems as our ideas are not always going to meet the expectations of the participants and the way we promote our projects is not always clear enough. How can we meet their need then?
You will often be guided by your own vision or ideas while planning a cultural offering. You are likely to take your audience into account while splitting into some sort of categories such as young people, seniors, neighbour’s, etc. As a matter of fact, the cultural sector has established tools for audience classification based on non-demographic factors. Culture audience segmentation uses leisure needs and styles as classifiers. It will help you tailor your cultural offering and the related communications to your target audience.
“Segmentation in Practice or Audience Intelligence-Driven Offering & Communications Planning” workshop will be lead by Katarzyna Krauze and Małgorzata Zając from the POLIN Museum of the History of Polish Jews. The workshop will help you learn what culture audience segmentation is and how it can help you achieve your goals, understand target group selection and identify ways of employing audience intelligence in developing your offering and communications.
