About the Course
By not actively positioning your business you are leaving everything up to chance, and worse, letting potential clients do this on your behalf which is unlikely to be for the benefit of you or your business.
Combined with a generic or uninspiring value proposition, poor positioning can be the reason behind some of the challenges and frustrations your business is experiencing.
If you're not attracting any new clients, it could be that your value proposition is too broad and doesn't highlight what is special about your business and why potential clients will want to work with you.
If you're not attracting clients you enjoy working with or are the right fit for your business, it could be that your value proposition doesn't clearly outline who your ideal client is.
This course covers how to identify your differentiators and what makes your business special. By connecting the dots between each element of the positioning process, you'll be able to confidently define your business' value proposition and use it as the basis for building your other strategic marketing elements such as your messaging platform and advertising campaigns.
It is a powerful course that provides the foundational principles you need to create a business you love working in. The knowledge gained will be applicable across other areas of your business, not just your positioning and value proposition.
