Why we’re going to love your unique selling proposition

    Have you ever spent time on Amazon trying to distinguish the differences between a dozen products that look similar, and promise to do pretty much the same thing? Marketing your features and benefits is essential, but your unique selling proposition could easily be what sets you apart from your competitors.

    Our best-selling book, “The CEO’s Guide to Marketing,” defines Unique Selling Proposition (USP) as, “the unique reason why your product is different and better than others.” It could provide you with leverage in the marketplace.

    Here are a couple really good examples: Domino’s Pizza’s 30-minute delivery guarantee helped it stay top-of-mind in the crowded pizza delivery category. FedEx distinguished itself by being the first delivery service to guarantee overnight package delivery.

    Your unique selling proposition may be your price, location, quality and/or ingredients/materials. It could be your sustainable packaging or processes. It may even be your industry leadership and expertise. We love clients’ USPs because they are fun to promote!
