How to competently approach the formation of competitive advantages for your business
What is a competitive advantage and is it important to define it in an offer to a client?
The competitive advantage of your business – this unique, unique face of your company. This is the difference that will help you find YOUR client. This is the basis of your unique customer value proposition.
What are the methods and tools for creating and developing competitive advantages?
There are many tools for creating competitive advantages – from working out simple "coaching" questions before a series of strategic sessions using tools such as Porter's competitive advantage analysis, SWOT analysis and others.
From the "others", I would like to highlight such a tool as the business model template, created by Alexander Osterwalder and described in his book "Building Business Models". The template proposed by the author consists of 9 structural blocks:
- key activities;
- key resources;
- value propositions;
- consumer segments;
- customer relations;
- key partners;
- sales channels;
- cost structure.
- revenue streams;
Competitive advantage – this is the difference that will help you find YOUR client.
Whatever tool you choose, you will need to answer a few important questions anyway:
- What do you enjoy doing?
- What do you do best, best of all?
- Who are you doing this for?
- What "they" want or need?
- Like "they" will change as a result of cooperation with you?
To form competitive advantages and build a coherent and strong business structure, it is necessary first of all to determine the main purpose, the mission of the company.
