Good
examples of positioning statements identify the target
customers, their problem, your value proposition, and key
competitors. My all-time favorite format came from
Geoffrey A. Moore back when he was a principal and partner at Regis McKenna,
Inc.
Product Position Statement
Every product introduction will have its own product positioning statement. This statement has value for management purposes. It's for internal use, to make sure we're all talking off the same page. It would get "doled up" for selling purposes. It's not your "elevator pitch". Note that this is grounded in reality. It's not an "image" or "posture", but rather a position that is grounded in actual accomplishments and relationships. When you view product introductions as one type of initiative a company can make then you will see how this all comes together. (Note that "initiatives" are broader set of activities that can also include actions like cutting back on travel to reduce expenses.) Putting it all together: A
compelling Vision and Mission can
be translated into Goals which are realized through Strategies
implemented as Initiatives to generate Results. Click here to learn about Creating Vision Statements Click here to learn about Creating Mission Statements
