Running it, start to finish

  1. Collect competitor homepages and pricing pages verbatim.
  2. Concede what they own and pick a defensible position.
  3. Check the unclaimed space is empty for a good reason before entering it.

What you get back

The output this produces, every time.

  • Identifies claims a competitor already owns, which are expensive and usually futile to contest.
  • Finds the unclaimed space, and distinguishes an opportunity from a gap that is empty for a reason.
  • Names where competitors are genuinely stronger, which is what keeps a sales team credible.

Getting better results

Where this usually goes wrong, and how to avoid it.

  • Concede the owned claims. Contesting an established position is the most expensive activity in marketing and it rarely moves anyone.
  • Use win-loss, not opinion. Section 5 is only useful from evidence. A team's view of competitor weakness is systematically flattering.
  • Adopt their vocabulary where customers have. Fighting the market's established language costs you comprehension for no gain.
