You want to avoid being commoditized...

In the eyes of your customers, are you offering the same as everybody else, making it more difficult to win business & protect your margins? Are you frustrated that prospective customers can't tell that you're better than your competitors, think they're just comparing "apples to apples", and that all they're interested in is getting a deal?

  • The conversation is all about price
  • Customers don't respond to your supposed points of differentiation – things that used to be 'order winners' are now just 'order qualifiers'.

(Being different is not about being wild and crazy - it's about identifying your unique resources and putting them together in ways that make you different - BETTER - than the competition.)

The good news...

The good news is you can create more differentiated value with resources you probably have already. You and your team can find those resources, put them together in unique combinations, and stand out in the eyes of your customers and clients.
