Workshop Activity III:
Competitive Positioning / Marketing
Actions Analysis
• The final activity leads to the creation of a
customer-based marketing mix
– Prepare a differential advantage profile (Value
Proposition/Communications Gaps) for one key
segment
– List Specific Marketing Mix Actions arising from
this analysis
• Use the following guidelines and framework
for guiding your discussion and preparing your
presentation
© professor colin egan, 2012
Slide 48
Differential Advantage/ Marketing
Actions Analysis
• This process identifies ‘Value Proposition Gaps’ and ‘Communications
Gaps’ in a business unit’s marketing programme
• Start by identifying a target market segment and evaluate its needs in
terms of a ranked list of benefits. Identify a ‘best-in-class’ rival who is
currently or potentially competing in this segment
• Undertake an objective evaluation of how the business unit thinks it
performs in meeting these benefits versus the named best-in-class
rival. Assume an external independent analysis
• The aim of the process is to benchmark against a ‘best-in-class’ rival
and all other competitors in the segment from: (i) A Value Proposition
perspective; (ii) A Customer Perception perspective.
© professor colin egan, 2012
Slide 49
This exercise has six stages
• Stage 1
– Name a clearly defined target market segment
• Stage 2
– Name a ‘best-in-class’ rival who competes in this
segment
• Stage 3
– Identify eight key benefits sought by customers
in the target market segment. Rank them in
order of stated customer priority
© professor colin egan, 2012
Slide 50
Exercise stages cont…
• Stage 4
– Rate how well your business performs in meeting
these customer benefits
– As a benchmark, use the ‘best-in-class’ rival
– Use a seven point measurement scale ranging from –
3 through zero to +3
– A score of zero states that you are no better or
worse than the named rival on each customer
benefit
– A negative score suggests you are worse, while a
positive score indicates superior performance
© professor colin egan, 2012
Slide 51
Exercise stages cont…
• Stage 4 (cont.)
– Use the full seven point scale and measure for
each customer benefit identified in Stage 3
– The magnitude of a positive score is a measure
of the sustainability of the advantage
– The magnitude of a negative score shows how
difficult and/or costly it would be to close the
gap with the rival
– Assume that the exercise would be undertaken
every six months
© professor colin egan, 2012
Slide 52
Exercise stages cont…
• Stage 5
– Rate how well customers perceive that your business performs in
meeting the benefits they seek
– Use the same seven point scale and benchmark against the same
rival
– A score of zero means that you are perceived as no better or
worse than your rivals in meeting the customer benefits sought
– A negative score indicates that you are perceived to be worse in
meeting the customer benefits sought
– A positive score indicates that you are perceived to be superior in
meeting the customer benefits sought
– Measure for each customer benefit identified in Stage 3
© professor colin egan, 2012
Slide 53
Exercise stages cont…
• Stage 6
– Evaluate the gaps between the company’s
objective evaluation of its own performance and
the perception of its customers in how well their
sought benefits are met, in both cases versus the
same best-in-class rival
– The output of the exercise will be in the form of a
matrix as shown in the next slide
