- who you are
- what business
  you're in
- for whom (what
  people do you serve)
- what's needed
  by the market you serve
- against whom do
  you compete
- what's different
  about your business
- what unique benefit
  is derived from your product or services?
- A positioning statement, by contrast expresses how you wish
  to be perceived.
- core message you want to deliver in every medium
- clear, defensible,
  differentiated positioning statement and supporting key messages to guide you
  and others along the way
- purpose of this is creating clarity, consistency
  and continuity in the way the organization speaks to the market.

- concentrate on uncovering issues, competitive
  and internal differences of opinion
- examine and be aware of what key competitors
  are claiming about themselves
- A second listener, note-taker is valuable to capture all
  the important ideas that tend to come rushing out
- the goal is uncovering direction by defining what is real as well as management's
  ideal vision. This includes company and competitors' strengths, weaknesses, competitive
  threats, opportunities (SWOT analysis). What is being sought are reasonable and
  compelling supports (key messages) for a position verses competitors,
- The hardest thing
  for many people to grasp is the concept of narrowing rather than broadening a
  company's focus. Trout and Reis' "Law of Focus" is very clear on this
  subject. Differentiation is essential.
- Craft one or two positioning statements
  and a set of key messages (supporting statements) for consideration by the work
  group.
- The second session
  should focus on refinement and agreement on one positioning statement and a limited
  set of key messages.

defines the benefit of your product / service to your target customer, and states how you’re different from your competitors.

6 more annotations...
- Who are you?
  - What is your business / industry?
  - Who is your target customer?
  - What are the needs of your target customer?
  - Who are your competitors?
  - What is the key benefit of your company over your competitors?
  - What is the unique benefit of your product/service, especially compared with your competitor’s product/service?
  - Why should your target believe you can deliver the benefits?
- three sessions:
- Template #1:
  (Product / Service / Company / Person) is the one (your category) that provides (your target customer) with (your key benefit) because (reason to believe you can deliver the benefit).
  Template #2:
  For (your target) who wants / needs (reason to buy your product/service), the (your product or service) is a (category) that provides (your key benefit). Unlike (your main competitor), the (your product/service) (your key differentiator).
- steer away from the following:
  
  • Listing more than one benefit or differentiator. Don’t try to stuff as much as you can into it. Realize that simplicity is always better. As one of my mentors use to say, “If you try to be all things to all people you’ll end up being nothing to no one.” No matter how hard it is, boil it down to one.
  • Not defining your target properly
- Not including the reason to believe or the reason to buy
- Including benefits that aren’t unique to you or sustainable over a period of time
