Portrait of the synthetic persona Vesna Perić

Vesna Perić

Commercial cleaner for office spaces (part-time, employed) · Auwiesen (Linz), Upper Austria

◆ Synthetic persona — not a real human Life-World: The Strivers · Stability & Advancement Decides: rational 54 yrs · Austria

12.37 euros gross an hour, wage group six: Vesna Perić walks into every conversation with that number whenever her boss, after a tender, has to explain why a building can still be kept — or no longer can. In Linz since the early nineties, having left Croatia, she cleans office spaces on a split shift, knows the industry's tender-driven price pressure and staff shortage firsthand, and is not impressed by polished advertising language or bureaucratic German.

In Radical Personas, Vesna reviews your website, ad, or copy from exactly this standpoint — with a Score and reasoning you can follow.

Tech affinity
Low to medium: a smartphone with WhatsApp for the shift schedule and the family, otherwise little interest in new technology. She dislikes online banking and prefers the ATM or paying by card at the checkout; she avoids government apps whenever a phone call or a trip to the counter works just as well.
Defining bias
Prefers the familiar, even if underpaid, company over switching to a possibly better-paying employer, because the risks of a new, unknown boss and new coworkers outweigh the potential gain in pay.
How she decides
Systematic and vetted rather than spontaneous: for larger purchases she deliberately compares several offers before committing, drawing as much on her own experience as on what someone around her has already been through. For decisions involving a contract or a form, she would rather read it twice than rely on verbal promises.
