When the right brand positioning is in place for your business it will help to drive everything else forward naturally – paving the way for your marketing approach, your services and your business reputation clearly. Get it wrong and your customers will never trust you.
Having a strong brand position provides a lot of advantages to your company whereas a weak positioning approach creates a weak firm and customers will spot this immediately and seek to take their business elsewhere.
Here are just a few reasons why the right brand positioning is important to your business:
Increased competitive edge
Positioning your brand marks your business out as a specialist, an expert, or a territory leader and puts you ahead of the competition immediately. By adopting a strong position and sticking with it consistently across all of your marketing materials, your business reputation will be greatly strengthened, and your competitors won’t stand a chance.
Stronger market focus
Positioning your business in a certain way means you will need to focus all of your attention and services into that position. Being laser focused in one area helps to enhance your reputation as an expert which can increase your value to prospective customers.
Support increased pricing
Positioning your firm against the competition will help you decide what new services to offer and how they’re priced. Are you a higher-priced boutique accounting firm or a no-frills, low-cost provider? Which new services and pricing support that positioning?
Clearer communication
Having a strong position makes it much easier to develop clear and concise communication throughout all of your branding and marketing materials. With a laser sharp focus in one direction, your business communication will be precise and effective as well.
Easier sales message
Having a strong position makes it much easier to develop clear sales tools and arguments and gives the business clear visibility above all of the other competitors in the market place, making your company instantly recognisable.
