Value Proposition

Value Proposition
So what is your Value Proposition?
Valuepropositionisapositioningstatementthat…
…explains what benefit you provide for who…
…and how you do it uniquely well
Problem
Solution
Solution
Look for non-disruptive
disruptions: technologies
that offer game-changing
benefits with minimal
modifications to existing
processes or environments.
Simply put: disruptive
innovation would ideally be
non-disruptive to adopt.
Solution
Value Proposition
For (target customers)
Who are dissatisfied with (unmeet need/want)
Our product is a (new product)
That provides (key problem-solving capability)
Unlike (the product alternative)
Unique Value Proposition
Discontinuous innovations
offer transformative benefits over the status quo by
looking at a problem differently.
What makes it truly compelling — not just to you and your
colleagues, but to your most skeptical customer?
Defensible technology
offers intellectual property that can be protected to
create a barrier to entry and an unfair competitive
advantage.
Disruptive business models
yield value and cost rewards that help catalyze the
growth of a business.
Is the problem
worth to be solved?
Problem Validation
Problem Validation
Is the problem Urgent?
Is it one of the top few priorities for a
company?
In selling to enterprises, you’ll find it hard to
command the attention and resources to get
a deal done if you fall below this line.
*If the answer is yes – then you know you’ll
have the attention of the c-suite.
Problem Validation
Is fixing the problem Unavoidable?
Is it driven by a mandate with implications
associated with governance or regulatory
control?
For example, is it driven by a fundamental
requirement for accounting or compliance?
*If the answer is yes – then that group will
likely be a champion.
(it could be car company, pharma company)
Problem Validation
Is the problem Unworkable?
Does your solution fix a broken business
process where there are real, measureable
consequences to inaction?
Will someone get fired if the issue is not
addressed?
*If the answer is yes – then that person will
likely be your internal champion.
(it could be the wife, the CFO, the doctor)
Problem Validation
Is the problem Underserved?
Is there a conspicuous absence of valid
solutions to the problem you’re looking to
solve?
Focus on the whitespace in a market or
segment.
*If the answer is yes – then you know the
market is primed for the solution.
Is the problem a good
market opportunity?
Market Validation
