Define the buyer's situation, decision role, and buying trigger.
Ask the learner to restate the principle using their own example.
Use interviews and purchase behavior rather than broad demographics alone.
Work one case together and narrate the decision at each step.
Estimate whether the segment is reachable with available channels.
Give the learner a new case; observe the process before offering a correction.
Choose one segment and a testable message.
Request an independent explanation and ask which assumptions might change the result.
Select the first audience for a service-inspired gift.
Show evidence, buying occasion, access channel, and a test.
Accept a written, spoken, or accessible equivalent response when it demonstrates the same skill. Mark each criterion met, developing, or missing; never mark attendance alone as competency.
