Get the Right Words to Sell Your Product

We tell you what to say that will make your audience remember you.

Why don’t people realize how great your product is?

A list of features and capabilities leaves your audience wondering what you do, who you’re for, and why you’re worth it.

Confusion doesn’t sell.

“The key message workshop was super helpful. We learned a lot, and the results were different from what we expected, which is a good thing because we need to change what we’re doing.”

— Russ, RapidFort, San Francisco, California

Signs you need messaging:

You have no leads.

People don’t become leads if they don’t know what you do. Your website and sales material might be confusing and vague.

Sales is shy.

Your sales team doesn’t want to show your website to their prospects. They create their own documentation because you have weak messaging.

You need investors.

Investors are attracted to strong messaging. They won’t invest if they don’t see your value.

Leads don’t convert.

Messaging convinces prospects/potential investors that you’re the clear winner in your space.

You’re here.

If you’re reading this, you need messaging.

The Math and Science of Key Messages

Key messages address customer pain points with features and capabilities.
Anything else is just featuritis. Here’s the math:

[Key Message] = “[Value] by [how] with [capabilities].”

[Value] = [Persona Pain Points] + [Capabilities]
[Capabilities] = [Value] - [Persona Pain Points]
[Persona Pain Points] = [Value] - [Capabilities]
