Core Concept or Framework Explained

Offer positioning sits at the intersection of three elements According to the framework

• Your expertise
• Your client’s problem
• The outcome you deliver

When these align clearly your offer becomes compelling

A key principle is specificity creates value

Strong positioning answers three questions

• Who do you help
• What problem do you solve
• What result do you deliver

The clearer your answers the easier it is for clients to understand and trust your offer

This ensures that your positioning is

• Clear and focused
• Relevant to client needs
• Outcome driven

Instead of describing what you do you communicate the transformation you create
