Making A "productivity" Message Truly Relevant To Small Businesses
I am working with a client who wants to market a commodity technology product to small businesses. I can give them credit for creating an add-on to the product that competitors do not offer, however, the product in & of itself is not blindingly useful (mostly because this audience likely has other products they may already use to complete these tasks). Furthermore, it will be difficult to make sure the buyer even knows the add-on product is there when purchasing. The client believes that this add-on provides a signficant competitive differentiation of "productivity." I personally believe that "productivity" is vague and overused. We need to really focus on building up the "productivity" message to the audience. More than saying "this will make you more productive" - we must answer the small business owners' specific challenges. i.e., "how will this product make you more productive" and/or are there similary issues that we can tie in - to help BUILD the productivity message? We need to make sure that the small business audience feels they have been heard, and that my client has created a product specifically for them.
