What are the common product positioning mistakes that brands make
Diversifying products in unrelated markets
Brands must keep the target audience in mind when they introduce a new product and ensure that the product is related to what customers associate your brand with. Furthermore, the brand must position their products in such a way that the customers trust them to offer best-in-class products.
Effective product positioning ensures that marketing messages resonate with target consumers and compel them to take action. Request a free proposal to know how we can help you formulate an effective product positioning strategy.
Product launch when the market is not ready
Introducing a poorly positioned product before a market is ready for it could be a grave mistake for brands. Apple’s Newton PDA that hit the markets in the early 90s is a classic example of this. This was a period when people were not even accustomed to mobile phones and Filofax diary and business cards were the key tools used for time management and networking. Introducing a product that would not solve any major challenge or meet the needs of customers will ultimately fail.
Ineffective communication of the use cases
It is essential for businesses to convince customers on why they should buy the product and what are the use cases that the product would serve. Apart from a strong product positioning strategy, it is also essential for businesses to have a clear competitive positioning strategy in place. This will help brands to gain a winning edge when compared to their counterparts in the market.
