Position Strategy
If you do not stand out from the competition you risk losing value and your potential customer will have a more difficult time seeing you as the better choice.
People often base their buying experience on simple factors. Business location, recommendations from their friends and family and cost all play an important roll in a buying decision if they cannot clearly identify who is the better choice.
If you dont want to compete with everyone else you need to ensure your customer sees you as a significantly better option than your competitors.
Do any of these situations sound familiar?
- You know you have a great product or service but you struggle explaining it in a way that sounds amazing: You want your website to make you stand out in the crowd and drive interest in what it is you are selling. It is key to convey your message in a cleaver, compelling way that draws interest and motivates your customers to want to know more.
- You are pasionate about what you are selling and cant understand why your customers can't see why you are the best choice. You also know that if you can't communicate why you are the better choice, you are wasting time and money on generic website content that will only serve to weaken your marketing efforts.
- You see that your website content just isn’t being effective. You content sounds like everybody else, so your customers can't see why you're the better choice. The end result is you are losing valuable online leads and sales.
Does any of this sound familiar?
There is a solution: an effective Position Strategy
To remove the fatigue and frustration trying to communicate you have no equal, I can offer a strateg that turns the problem listed above into a winning strategy.
Are you looking to improve your position and can align with any of the following:
- looking to create a solid foundation for a profitable online position.
- tired of failed attempts creating content that best describes your business.
- just not getting the results we thought we would from our website content and our marketing efforts.
- looking to make an impact now without making any more mistakes.
As a bonus
Investing in this strategy gives a huge sigh of relief and a sense of satisfaction that gives way to a vision of clarity to what will follow.
When website content under-performs...
....or worse, completely fails to drive results, it doesn’t necessarily mean it was poorly written. More often than not it means you weren’t crystal clear on how to position your business in the most compelling way. A Positioning Strategy solves this problem.
