The foundational elements of B2B positioning

By Bob Wright, Alison Murdock, and Jennifer Sikora

When you sound just like every other company in your category, your sales cycles get longer, win rates drop, and buyers default to the safe choice or the status quo. 

Buyers can’t make a decision because they can’t make a distinction. That’s a positioning problem.

In this Blueprint, we break down the elements of distinct B2B positioning narratives that communicate what makes you different, capture buyer attention, and win more deals. Including:

  • Targeting the executive buyer: Positioning your solution around costly, urgent business problems that matter to the decision-maker who controls the budget.
  • Category strategy: Positioning within and reshaping your category to stand out without confusing your buyer.
  • Shaping the buying criteria: Help buyers define what a good solution looks like—on your terms.
  • Identifying true differentiators: Uncover and prioritize the advantages that map to the buyer's most urgent, painful problems.

Want to align your team behind a positioning strategy and story that builds buyer clarity, urgency and drives growth?
