6 Steps to Strategic Corporate Positioning

6 Steps to Strategic Corporate Positioning

Corporate positioning is the process of identifying and communicating a company’s unique value proposition to its target audience. For technology companies, this process can be especially important as they strive to stand out in a crowded and rapidly-evolving market. Here is a general outline of the steps involved in developing a corporate positioning strategy for a tech company:

1. Conduct market research: Understand the competitive landscape and identify the unique value proposition of the company. Study the target audience, their needs, and their pain points.

2. Define the company’s mission and vision: Clearly articulate the company’s purpose and what it hopes to achieve in the market.

3. Identify key differentiators: Determine what sets the company apart from its competitors. This could include factors such as product features, customer service, or company culture.

4. Develop messaging: Create a clear and compelling message that communicates the company’s unique value proposition to its target audience. This message should be consistent across all marketing and communications materials.

5. Implement the positioning strategy: Once the positioning strategy has been developed, it needs to be implemented across all of the company’s marketing and communications channels. This includes the website, social media, advertising, and other marketing materials.

6. Continuously monitor and adjust: The positioning strategy should be continuously monitored and adjusted as needed. This will help ensure that the company’s message remains relevant and effective in the ever-changing technology market.

It’s important to note that creating a positioning strategy is not a one-time process but an ongoing effort. It requires constant monitoring of the market, competitor’s moves and customer’s feedback, in order to make sure that the company is always presenting the best version of itself to the target audience.
