Hi, I’m back with another solo episode, because I’ve spent so much time recently talking with people about positioning that I wanted to do an episode on it.
So many people struggle with sales and marketing, because they have created a high degree of difficulty for themselves by not taking advantage of positioning.
In this episode learn how:
- To focus your messaging on your ideal clients
- How to overcome FOMO (Fear of Missing Out) when you narrow your niche
- “MEGA” Positioning, the world’s cheesiest marketing pneumonic:
- Magnetic (and what people get wrong about it)
- Easy (because this is the dial you use to make sales and marketing easier or harder)
- Gorilla (how to make yourself the 800 pound gorilla of your market)
- Authentic (you’ve got to be true to yourself)
- How to create your Superhero Name and tell your Origin StoryHow to use “The Bar Test” to check your messaging and make sure it resonates
- Why strong positioning with a narrower nice leads to more leads, not less
- How to develop your positioning when you get “stuck”
