Invest in Opportunities and Grow EBIT
Identifying which Opportunities you should invest time, effort, resource and money into is not always straightforward. When the customers seem to be ideal, there always seems to be an undue amount of competition. Where competition is less, the opportunities never seem to be so good.
So, what can be done to resolve this?
The answer is research, alignment and Value positioning!
The problem with 'business as usual' today, is that this ideal state no longer exists. Today's market is characterized by great organisations who customers choose to buy from, and the rest. The rest however are being driven to adopt lower and lower cost models to survive. As the power of information technology grows, all players in a market will have access to far more information. Thus, totally new business models will emerge in which even players from outside the industry are able to vastly change the basis of competition in a market.
If people in an organisation don't understand how a company is supposed to be different, how it creates value compared to its rivals, then how can they possibly make all the myriad choices they have to make? Every salesman has to know the strategy -- otherwise, they won't know who to call on, or what to say. Every engineer has to understand it, or they won't know what to build.
The knowledge required to achieve these goals has changed, most organisations store of knowledge hasn't.
The results are clear today and getting clearer. Those that gather the best customer focused knowledge and use it to produce the best differentiated Value for their customers are and will continue to produce the best results.
By better understanding the needs of your prospects and customers, you can more accurately align your offerings to their needs, and present them in such a way that your customer or prospect clearly perceives you as distinct and differentiated, offering them real Value throughout their organisation.
