How to think about messaging your value prop
🏗️ It’s like building a bridge 🏗️
Your goal is to get prospects to your side.
❌ You can’t just talk about what you do.
You must connect what the customer cares about → to what you care about.
The customer cares about:
⬛ Their situation and use case
(The current way they are navigating the situation)
🟥 Their problems with this current way
(The functional and emotional challenges of the status quo)
You care about:
→ Your product
_
So instead of just talking about what you do...
Use this framework to develop better a better bridge:
🟨 Persona
…who’s using…
⬛ Alternative
…and encounters…
🟥 Problem
…solved by…
🟧 Capability
…powered by…
đźź© Feature
…which drives…
🟦 Benefit
