Positioning: Sorting Out What’s Unique From The ‘Blah, Blah’

It's not that we like to blah.
It's just that we end up doing a blah, blah, without realising it at all.

So let's look at how we sort out uniqueness from the blah

Here's an example of Aveeno Intense Relief Hand Cream.

Yup, this is the hand cream. Looks like any other hand cream. And worse, look at the text below. It even sounds like any hand cream.

And here's the description:

AVEENO® Intense Relief Hand Cream is specially formulated with natural oatmeal and rich emollients to help repair dry skin and form a protective glove against the elements. AVEENO® Intense Relief Hand Cream is non – greasy and moisturises skin for 24 hours. It continues to moisturise even after washing your hands. This fast – absorbing formula is fragrance free and gentle enough for even sensitive skin. It's also great for use on elbows, knees and feet – anywhere your dry skin needs extra help.

Now let us get rid of the blah (if only for a little while)

See how that jumps out and stays memorable?

In the blah, you may have spotted it, or not. But the moment you slaughter and sacrifice, the uniqueness jumps out and stands out like crazy. And that's really the key to uniqueness. You need to be able to slaughter and sacrifice the other features (yes, the ‘blah') so that one feature can stand out and get the attention of the customer.

As you know, you don't have to get rid of the other features forever.

You can use them and should use them. But you need to know how to segregate the uniqueness from the rest of the stuff. That will enable you to sell more products or services, and leave your competitors high and dry.
