Initial ideas

Develop the conceptual pitch for your DBA rebrand. Use your own feelings and experiences along with the experiences of your peers, underclassmen, and faculty to help guide your creative choices. There will be 4 main steps to this first benchmark. Step 1 - Question Drafting Write at least 10 open-ended questions that help to gather the following information about an interviewee: What is their relationship to DBA like? What to they want more/less of? What are their goals? How are they meeting their goals? Step 2 - Interviewing Stakeholders Interview at least 1 member from each of the following demographics using the questions you drafted. More interviews can help your group make more informed decisions. Try to conduct these interviews in person if possible. Note your interviewee's demeanor when answering questions in addition to their responses. DBA 10th Grader DBA 11th Grader DBA 12th Grader (From a different group) DBA Faculty (Not Mr. Schwall) **bonus if you can** DBA Alumni (student or faculty) Step 3 - Persona Creation Using the responses to your interviews, synthesize a persona that captures the similarities of your interviewee's responses. This persona should not be a specific interviewee, but should represent the general sentiments of all interviewees. Focus on the following when crafting your group's persona: Audience Segment Background Information Personality Traits/Characteristics Wants (more of/less of) Goals A short biography. Step 4 - Concept Pitch Using your persona, craft a concept or direction your rebranding of DBA will take to embody their wants/goals and remain true to noted characteristics and traits. Your pitch should be at least one paragraph long and include justification from your persona and interview questions. As part of your concept pitch, include a new slogan that captures the essence of your team's new brand identity for DBA. Deliverables Proof of process for steps 1 through 3.
