Today entering a new market or launching a new product is a more complex and risky endeavor than ever before. Your business strategy must be well planned.  Crowded markets, short product life cycles and competition around every corner is the norm, not the exception. Today your market entry strategy must be different than your long-term market position and business strategy. You must enter a market in a fairly narrow niche that is well differentiated in the eyes of the target customer. This live video provides all the tools you need to define, model, test, communicate and enter new markets with higher confidence and clarity. All slides are also available free by email to print.

You Will Learn How To:

1. Better differentiate your product or service by strategic positioning using competitive landscape mapping and other tools

2. Define a better and more protectible market entry and strategic position for your business

3. Get more sales using a Unique Selling Proposition (USP), Visual Selling Proposition (VSP) and Emotional Selling Proposition (ESP) that leverages your business strategy and position

4. Protect your margins and market by raising higher barriers to entry using your positioning strategy

5. Go up against much larger companies and win

6. Attract investors and employees better

7. Differentiate your market entry with a different long-term business strategy

8. Attack vertical markets with smaller resources and win

9. Steps to test your business's potential and radically improve its strategic positioning

Most people approach business strategy and product positioning as a flash of insight instead of the result of good market research and complete strategic planning process.  This is a huge mistake that guarantees an inferior business strategy in the end.  This video gives you the entire step-by-step process you need to do this right and greatly increase your chances of success.

	Hello, I am Bob Norton and I developed this course  to help more entrepreneurs and CEOs succeed by positioning their business more strategically. I have found that less than 10% of small and medium size company CEOs seem to know about and use these tools that can enormously enhance the position of their company. Little can have more impact than this on a company's success, it is like the wind at your back.   By using a complete framework for strategic planning and positioning you can drive your company's growth much faster and with less risk and capital.  I review investor presentations almost every week. I participate on the screening committees of investor groups. I have also invested well over $1 million of my own funds in startup ventures over the years.  So I have been on both sides of the table many, many times.  I also do custom critiquing and coaching of entrepreneurs and CEOs presentations all the time. I find that most entrepreneurs make the same mistakes over and over again and sink their chances of closing deals by not being properly prepared.  More often than not they do not show exceptional knowledge of their market by presenting a strategic positioning map and plan.  Those that do get funded more much often.  Professional venture capitalists really like to see these strategic maps, as they prove the CEO has done their homework and knows the market space. As part of our business at C-Level Enterprises, Inc. I mentor and advise entrepreneurs and CEOs on strategic positioning of their business for more rapid growth and on designing and optimizing their business strategy and business model. This video is not just hints and tips but a complete plan to prepare your positioning strategy. I guarantee this will be one of the best investments you ever make because the information has so much leverage it should make and save you an enormous amount of time and greatly increase your chances of success.
