Homework
Length: 3 to 5 pages.
Details
The brand is positioned in the marketplace to elicit a favorable response from customers. Differentiation sets the point of difference or uniqueness that makes the product stand apart from its competitors. Advertising and public relations messages present the face of the brand to the customer and the general public. This differentiation is noted in the message of advertising (paid) campaigns. Public relations specialists often pick up on this differentiation in their analysis and reporting on various brands and companies.
When developing an ad campaign and positioning the product, differentiation is an important element of competitive advantage. For example, maybe your brand's dishwashing liquid cleans better than the other brands. If this is the case, your unique selling proposition (USP) is, "It cleans better, it tastes great, it's easier to use, it's quality all around."
Key Concept Snapshot: Marketers establish USP, or differentiator, in advertising messages for customers to react, respond, and above all remember!
