Positioning Strategically: A Bloxspring Guide

In an ocean of similar tech products, differentiation is key. How can you leverage strategic positioning for success?

We help clients attain clarity over their communication objectives and style: encouraging them to think about what their company represents, what it is trying to achieve and streamlining a set of key messages and descriptors.

Step 1: Defining the company overview

What is the story so far?

  • What are your key milestones?
  • What is your current product offer?
  • Who is your current client base?

Step 2: Defining the company vision

  • What is the overarching company vision?
  • What are the annual goals/KPIs?
  • What, specifically, are your key marketing goals?

Step 3: What is the positioning?

“Positioning defines how your product / company is a leader at delivering something that a well-defined set of customers cares a lot about. It's a context setting; the opening scene of a movie.”

 

Step 4: What is our process for positioning a company for success?

1. Competitive Alternatives

If your product didn’t exist, what would customers use?

2. Unique Attributes

What features and capabilities do you have that others don’t?

3. Enabled Proof

What value do these features provide customers? What proof do you have?

4. ICP

Who are the sub-markets and companies that care a lot about this value?

What do they have in common?

5. Buyer Personas

Who are the individual buyers that care most about this value and why?

Step 5: Bag more leads

  • Attraction: Non-engaged prospects
  • Acceleration: Engaged prospects, stalling in pipeline
  • Expansion: Engaged prospects, with potential for further upsell
