To be successful, you have to understand what sets you apart from your competitors and be clear on the problems your business solves. By using precise language that establishes solutions to a client’s problems, you can determine the exact elements needed to create your value proposition.
Who Is Your Client?
It is impossible to solve any problems without knowing who your client is. To answer this question, you must pause and think about the people who need your services; become crystal clear about what this person needs, who they are, and what their problems are. When you are familiar with exactly how they feel, you can pinpoint their emotions, which is how you identify their problem; then, you flip it, to create your solution.
What Is Going On In Your Clients’ Heads?
Once you have determined who your client is, the next step requires you to crawl inside their heads and understand what they are thinking. What is really bothering them – why are they not sleeping? In marketing, they call this – what keeps them up at night. You have to figure out the conversation they already have inside their heads and how you can enter that conversation. Find a way to say – is this you – do you resonate with this problem, and once they see that you understand their situation, you have successfully made the connection. Now you can create the exact solution because you understand the challenges they’re having, and you can communicate a deep understanding – I see your problem, and I have exactly what you need to fix it.
What Problem Are You Solving?
When you know your client and learn to climb into their heads to understand what they need, it makes it simple for you to determine the exact problem you are solving. In growth architecture, we always reverse engineer to define steps. Flipping their problem allows you to process and create a solution specifically designed to meet your clients’ needs – to solve their unique problems. This enables you to create a solution specifically for the problem in the exact language you need to use to speak to your client’s needs.
