You either stand out,

or you blend in

It's easy to look and sound the same

Whether you’re a small business or a Fortune 500 company, knowing what sets you apart (your secret sauce) and effectively presenting it is the most valuable thing you can do for your business. Without it, there is nothing that compels customers to choose you over other options. When that is the case, you’re one of ten options for the customer, and you must compete on price.

Where most organizations make a mistake is assigning their secret sauce to a generic claim like “we offer X number of solutions,” “our support team is best-in-class,” or “we’re a leader in the industry.” Unfortunately every competitor says these about their business too. Although they are well-intentioned claims, they fail to capture a unique aspect of the business that sets captures the customer’s interest. The truth is it takes courage to stand out.

Why aren't more brands focused on their message?

The process of identifying and clearly expressing your unique value is complex and often overwhelming. Organizations struggle with decisions like which ideas to prioritize, which ideas to merge, and how to balance internal perspectives with what customers care about. The result is confusing or diluted messaging that blends in with the crowd.
