This woman is a genius. This woman is a true leader in the tech game.

[@PhirunKao]

Agreed. I couldn't find her name. Any idea?

[@juliarays1271]

Fabulous. High calorie infirmation. Helpful. Nice to see an intelligent interviewer who actually listens and supports the conversation without interruption to show themselves off like too many other podcasters who make it impossible to listen. Love how they take notes with a pen and a blocknote.

[@MargaretGbewordo]

High calorie: That's some poet stuff. I like that

[@leahleeds4289]

I’m going to listen to this every day for the rest of my life.

[@wholeness]

Why?

[@lele_home]

😮🤣

[@fendforguru]

🤷‍♂️

[@kcartesj]

Can you summary in 3 part?

[@Mantraflip]

I love this attitude! You get it. Any time I find something that resonates, I want to listen over and over until it becomes part of my philosophy. It becomes part of me. I’ve found you attract success by becoming more attractive. Success is looking for a good place to stay.

[@knowtheebetter]

This is a true gem. April is really insightful and she's very clear when she's going from high-level POV to detailed examples. It's a very good interview.

The best disucssion I've heard on understanding how B2B purchasing works. The points around postitioning are right on point. I watched the entire video, something I rarely do. Well done!

[@laurawilder7060]

The Story Telling segment is so valuable, in particular.

[@alexanderwilliams6527]

0:17 The most common way tech companies position themselves is find an underserved subsegment of the market. And push out from there. Totally agree.

[@svenschmidchen9873]

This is an excellent masterclass of positioning. More value than in all coaching programs I have anntended in the last years for positioning a SaaS company. Thanks for this amazing value on Easter time 🙏🙏🙏.

[@patrick-mwit3537]

Value ++++. Thank you very much for sharing your knowledge with us Mrs April Dunford.

[@andersenchang9524]

Components of Positioning 1. Competitive alternatives: If you didn’t exist, what would a customer do? 2. What do you have that the alternatives don’t? 3. What is the value of those features? Why does it matter? 4. Who cares a lot about that? (finding niche) 5. Build messaging around that. 6. Don’t talk about the features, talk about why features matter.

[@maianhh3413]

Great❤

[@TanyaAlizaTV]

Wow, so much value here! Your breakdown of positioning was so clear and thorough.

[@ThisDesignLife]

April is such a breath of fresh air with great usable example, no hype and all quality.

[@lilyb2617]

Excellent. 👏🏼 I specialise in growth and GTM strategy and positioning is one pillar of my framework, yet I always tell clients positioning is the key. April explains this incredibly well. Most people immediately think of brand positioning only and miss all of this.

[@jeury-tavares]

this video is on another level. A master class worth thousands. Thank you for posting this video. You should interview Jule Kim next on lead generation and SEO.

[@danarobinson6156]

Just made me see and understand how positioning can be frickin brilliant 🎉

[@dhammalistener]

I think this is a video podcast about marketing that helped me clear my strategic thinking and put things into perspective by enabled me to clearly see new hidden opportunities in my business.

[@סימן-טובסברי]

Great questions by Shane, great content by April Dunford. Keep sharing great info!

[@FredPalumbo-q2z]

As a marketing expert, the key to driving more sales, building loyal customers, and securing bigger promotions lies in the understanding the value of relationships, consistency, and strategy. First and foremost, It's all about building trust. Loyal customers are born when you consistently deliver value and exceed their expectations. A great product or service is just starting point. Customer service, personalized experiences, and engagement through channels like social media, email, and even offline interactions keep coming back. When it comes to increasing sales, a targeted approach is essential. Understanding your audience's needs pain points, and desire enables you to craft the night messaging and offers. Marketing is about solving problems, no t just selling products. You also need to stay innovative with your tactics, whether it's through content marketing, paid ads, referral programs, or leveraging influencers.
