A sua empresa, consegue ser clara?

Na linha de "Sobre a paranóia da eficiência e do eficientismo" e de "Aumentar o "producer surplus", o caminho menos percorrido (parte IV)" este texto "Any Value Proposition Hinges on the Answer to One Question":
"the key issue is always: what is the center-of-gravity in our approach? Do we ultimately compete on the basis of our cost structure or another basis that increases our target customer’s willingness-to-pay? In other words, will we sell it for more or make it for less — and allocate sales resources accordingly?
...
Sell it for more. Here, your product or service provides better performance on attributes that are important to target customers and for which they are willing to pay a premium.
...
Make it for less. Here, your cost structure allows you to sell and make money at prices that competitors cannot. Realities in many industries typically allow only a few firms to compete successfully in this manner. Once they do, moreover, their scale advantages make it difficult for others to duplicate.
...
You must be clear with your people about where your business falls along this spectrum.
.
If you’re not clear about this, your sales efforts will run into problems. Externally, there will always be someone out there who can beat you on cost and price, or someone else who tailors its operations and sales efforts to the performance and buying criteria of a segment better than you can. Depending upon your value proposition, sales will face different buyers and selling tasks and require different support processes to deliver value.
...
Strategy requires choice, clear communication, and coherent performance management practices, not just stirring metaphors, with the people who deal with customers. A moment of truth is the customer value proposition. Clarity about that will help your salespeople (and everyone else) focus more efficiently, qualify customers more effectively, and allow your firm to allocate resources more profitably."
Um dos grandes problemas passa por isto "Subtrair é tão difícil". É difícil deixar alguma possibilidade de fora, quer-se ir a todas.
