What's Your Personal Usp?

Posted by Anonymous on 250 Points
I am carrying out research for the most common words people use to describe themselves when trying to sell themselves.

C'mon then.........

What's your personal USP?

Tell me what is your Unique Selling Proposition - the one special thing about you, that u feel makes u stand out from the competition. - in no more than 50 words.

Remember this is not a Business's USP, but ur personal USP.

    I don't have a USP made up, so this could be an interesting question thread to follow.

    I do have a 'career statement' from a few years ago when I was last job hunting. It is:

    I am the key guy who brings all the parts together to make sure the company is making money.
    I am a product and marketing manager who while posted in Korea made changes to the marketing and products in Asia that helped more than double its sales and be the one region to beat its sales plan.
    My expertise is in managing products marketed to businesses in order to maximize profits.
    I have the unique ability to translate technology-based features into benefits that non-technical customers understand and value.
    I have 4 years experience in product management, along with an MBA and 6 years experience in other marketing and technical positions.


    Not sure if that helps.

    My personal USP used to be: I smoke to look cool, drink for effect, work to get money to do stuff, and get things."

    But I've since given up smoking, so that's out.

    On my Personal calling card, I've printed the USP: Darcy Moen, since 1965.

    On my joke consulting card, I have a wonderful picture of a fellow with his head up his butt (the wonders of photoshop never cease!) and his neck tie hanging down between his spread legs. I've printed the headline over the image "If this looks like anyone you know, please introduce me". Under the services offered, I've listed, "Lessons on how to find your own ass with both hands, at high noon", "Heads extracted at reasonable rates",and "Butts saved, or your money back".

    On my dry cleaning company card, I had my "owners" USP "If you care about clothing as much as I care about dry cleaning, we should talk".

    Hope this helps, or at least entertains.
