"Why The USP Doesn't Work Anymore & What To Do Instead"

Written by "Dangerous" Debbie Jenkins


Continued from page 1

- If you are unique then as soon as you start telling peoplerepparttar reasons why, somebody else will copy it and, alas, it is no longer unique.

- Most people realiserepparttar 120395 above as soon as they start looking and instead of doingrepparttar 120396 hard work they'll just slap a USP label on something that is 'me too' or mediocre.

- USPs feed many money-hungry textbook marketers with research, positioning and creative brainstorming projects. Then once somebody copies you it's back torepparttar 120397 drawing board and they can get paid all over again.

I want you to getrepparttar 120398 notion of 'unique' out of your head by replacing it with 'decisive'. We'll look at how to achieve this shortly. Too many "textbook marketers", in my experience, really don't understand USPs. It's just another buzzword they throw at you to sound clever and important but underrepparttar 120399 surface their USPs are usually little more than over-dressed features.

So What Should You Be Aiming For? Right, back torepparttar 120400 programme... I'd like you to ignore 'unique' and replace it with 'decisive'. I call thisrepparttar 120401 Decisive Power Point (DPP).

A "Decisive Power Point" is more effective than a "Unique Selling Point" for a number of reasons:

- Unique doesn't necessarily mean favourable torepparttar 120402 person choosing - Decisive does! - If all else is equal your DPP will tiprepparttar 120403 scales in your favour - it will berepparttar 120404 deciding factor. - DPPs work from your client's viewpoint - they are triggers that help your client decide, not just things that you think are unique. - A decisive difference is much easier to find and maintain than a unique one.

So, don't settle for unique! Be decisive!

NOTE: An example ofrepparttar 120405 DPP chart can be found here... http://www.debbiejenkins.com/academy-pics/DAY17-dpp- example.gif Your goal is to have a benefit that is higher and further torepparttar 120406 right than three of your best competitors.
