Book Abstract

MAIN IDEA

Positioning is an organized system for creating product awareness in the minds of prospective customers.

Products which are positioned effectively are connected mentally to the perceptions of consumers in their target markets. Elements of positioning include the product’s name, its price and everything which is included in the total package. When all of these elements work together, they create – in the prospect’s mind – a unique market position for the product. That unique market position then translates into sales, because when people think of products in that industry, the well positioned product comes to mind first.

In practice, positioning suggests that products can be marketed more successfully if, instead of trying to be all things to all people, the product has a narrower marketing focus. Products that are specifically oriented to one specialist niche – or in other words that are positioned for that niche – can then put greater emphasis on serving that niche well.

The trick lies in establishing and maintaining a market position that nobody else is targeting
