Clear position = reduced friction
● Operations are easier - reduces costs
and redundancies (six sigma)
● Hiring - reduces amount of roles, highly
specialized (single focused) workforce
● Acquisition - makes getting new clients
easier, targeting your marketing
campaigns, track record with their peers,
less competition, outside acquisition
● Reduces PIA - truly allows you to pull
yourself out of the business and focus
on ‘big rocks’
● Stand out - clearly defines who you are
and the value you offer clients
● Establishes authority - become the go
to source for the market
(kindlepreneur)

4.
This is the right choice
● “I don’t want to give up current customers”
● “I don’t want to turn away potential
customers”
● “I don’t want to get stuck in a position that I
can’t get out of”
● If you’re not in a position to help them, they
shouldn't be a customer
● Build a referral network for prospects
outside of your scope
● “X Agency makes millions and they don’t
specialize, why should I?”

BUILDING YOUR OFFER
Communicating your positioning to the market.

13.
WTF offer?
● Once you’ve defined your position, now it’s time to build your offer
● Don’t confuse a marketing offer with your business offer...
● An offer is how you communicate your positioning / value to the market. It
aims at to capture how we will problems and pain points of our target
customer
● Marketing offer (aka front end offer) = an ebook, webinar, checklist,
template, etc
● Business offer (aka bank end offer) = We help software companies
increase signups from Google using SEO sprints.

14.
WTF offer?
● Your offer is NOT….
● WHAT you’re doing for them (SEO, PPC, design, etc)
● WHAT they’re getting (number of articles, number of ads, etc)
● WHAT you’re charging
● Your offer IS….
● The OUTPUT or RESULT of BENEFITS from working with you (how will they feel)
● Don’t confuse FEATURES with OUTPUTS
