Make your product positioning more than just a statement. In
this one-day workshop, learn how to develop a product positioning
strategy, plus how to identify the actions needed to achieve your
position, differentiation, and success.
Effective product positioning is the result of understanding
the market from the customer's perspective. A key first step is
to identify how customers evaluate their alternatives and make
purchasing decisions. You'll then select the best position for
the product and align the marketing and product actions.
We'll employ the PSN SymphonyTM method
to approach positioning for new product concepts, products in
development, and existing products.? You'll also have the opportunity
to apply these tools to your own products -- gaining know-how
and confidence to refine, defend, and implement your positioning
strategy within your company.
