Software and technology companies can have a particularly hard time establishing solid positioning because the offered benefits may resemble that of a competitor.
The ideal goal of positioning process is –> to help your target buyers associate a benefit with your solution, product or company. With effort and time, you can claim a position by consistently reminding that benefit to the target audience.
Central idea
Your positioning statement becomes the central idea or theme for all your marketing activities. A positioning statement is a short, declarative sentence that states just one benefit, and addresses your target market’s No. 1 problem.
This short message serves as a recipe for your entire software product’s marketing communication.
Repetition and commitment
Positioning delivers the same message across all marketing media – including web sites, brochures, advertisements and presentations – to investors, industry analysts and prospects. Repetition is one of the most important factors in claiming a position and giving it staying power. Remember, you’ll get tired of your message strategy long before your target audience is tired of it – and sometimes even before all your audiences have heard your positioning for the first time. Be patient and give it a chance to work.
