When it comes to getting your message in front of a target audience, there's no better way than with video.  Video isn't just for creating interest and building the top of the funnel, it also has a critical place in leading prospects through the middle of the funnel all the way to the bottom.

Sales Messaging & Competitive Positioning

and everything else will fall into place.

We provide clear, compelling, and consistent messaging assets that grab attention, separate you from competition, and effectively communicate your value proposition.

We test your uniqueness for relevance, validate market perception,  and analyze it in view of competitors. We uncover gaps and provide new insights and modifications based on facts and unbiased research.

Sales Messaging

Is your message working the way it should?

Maybe it could work better.

86% of value propositions presented to customers

are not relevant.  CMO Insights

 

The #1 inhibitor to a sales person's success is their inability to communicate their value message in a compelling and confident way.  Sirius Decisions

No.1

If the value proposition is wrong, everything else will be wrong

 

Your may be surprised, but having a wrong value proposition is more common than you think. There are many reasons for that, but if it's not customer enticing and different, pull back your sales efforts until you get it right. 

No.2

Build from your difference, not from your strengths

 

It's easy to define your value proposition based on what you're good at. But if you do, you're missing the point. The only things that matter is what your customers really value most and your differentiation.

No.3

If you can't articulate your value, no one else will either

 

You may have put a lot of effort into crafting a strong sounding value proposition but if it's not meaningful to your prospects or they don’t understand it, start over because you really don’t have one.
