The product you are analysing e.g. home-baked sweets sold online, $15 a box, 30 boxes a month
How you sell it today e.g. photos on social media, orders by direct message. Most buye rs are people you already know.
What is going wrong e.g. you cannot explain who the product is for, even to yourself , and the price is just copied from the shop down the road.
2. The Three STP ...
S Segmentation
Split the market into look-alike groups e.g. use three criteria - age, occasion and what people value
T Targeting
Pick the one group you will aim at e.g. weigh market appeal against your strengths and settle on business gifts
P Positioning
Decide how you stand out in that group e.g. sweets you can hand over and explain, with every ingredi ent named
A Treat for myself
B Business gift
C Present
Age
e.g. office workers in their 20s and 30s. They buy for th emselves and eat it themselves
Their 30s to 50s. Handed to people they work with
Over 40. Birthdays and thank-you gifts
Occasion
e.g. a weeknight at home, winding down. One or two pieces at a time
A gift on a visit or before a meeting. One box each time
An anniversary present, delivered to the person's home
What they value
e.g. an easy price, and light enough to keep eating
Something to talk about when handed over. Keeps well
Looks and wrapping. Nothing that could embarrass them
縦軸: Market appeal...
e.g. presents (C). The market is large, but the big names win on wrapping and delivery. Skip i t for now and look again once you can handle it.
e.g. business gifts (B). Aim here. People buy a whole box at a time, and the story of the ingr edients is exactly what gets talked about. Growth and the number of rivals matter too, but the se two axes are enough to start.
e.g. none of A, B or C landed here. Leave it empty. Decide that any market landing here is off the table. Time spent here stops the work on the market you chose.
e.g. a treat for myself (A). The price is low, but the same people keep coming back. Keep it a s an add-on to the business gift box.

The surroundings they take in e.g. shelves of lookalike g ift boxes at the station
縦軸: Price (top = ...
e.g. the patisserie at the station. High on brand and location. You cannot win on that ground, so do not stand there.
e.g. aim here yourself. Move to $19 a box and add a card that names where each ingredient come s from.
e.g. supermarket baked sweets, $6 a box. Matching that price is not something you can keep up, so stay out of this square.
e.g. small online sellers. Good ingredients at a low price. This is where you sit today. Build the reason to raise the price with the one line in board 9.
Three criteria - age, occasion and what they value
e.g. split into a treat for myself, a business gift and a pres ent
If the reason to buy is different, it is a different group
When in doubt, split by the occasion and you rarely go wrong
e.g. aim at business gifts, people in their 30s to 50s handing them to work contacts
Why - they buy a whole box, and the ingredient story travels w ell
Keep the markets you skipped, each with the reason written nex t to it
Aim at one only. Two targets blur every move you make
e.g. sweets you can hand over and explain, with every ingredie nt named
The price is $19 a box. You are not competing on being cheap
e.g. take the words from pains and gains on board 5 and put th em on the product card and social media
In three months, check whether that line still lands the way y ou meant it
