VIDEO SUMMARY
This video is about product differentiation, a key concept in marketing.
The video explains what product differentiation is and the advantages of successful product differentiation.
Product differentiation is how customers perceive a distinct, noticeable, and desirable difference between the products offered by different businesses. If you can differentiate your product in the minds of the customer, they are more likely to see your product as being more desirable and advantageous to use than the alternatives provided by competitors.
There are many advantages to product differentiation. First, it is a means of competing successfully. If you can sustain this product differentiation, your products are more likely to compete effectively. Second, product differentiation enables a business to build and protect a brand. Differentiated products are often associated with strong brands. Strong brands build intangible value, something that customers are prepared to pay for and be loyal to. Third, differentiation allows a business to add more value in terms of sales compared with the costs of the input through the transaction process. A highly differentiated product that customers value can usually be sold for a higher price than competitors, and therefore may enable the business to achieve higher gross profit margins.
The video also talks about what a product differentiation requires. First, the product needs to be capable of delivering what is important to customers. Then, it can be differentiated in some way, either by the look, the feel, the design, the method of delivery, or the quality compared with the competition. This differentiation also needs to be communicated to customers regularly and effectively. Finally, the differentiation needs to be protected from being copied by competitors. For example, Lush has a very distinctive smell and layout of their retail stores that many retailers have tried to imitate, but no one has been able to successfully copy it.
The video ends by mentioning a related concept called USP, or unique selling proposition. Products that are effectively differentiated are often said to have a USP, which is something in the eyes of consumers that sets the product apart from the competitors. It needs to be something more than just saying we have the best products or the cheapest products. It needs to be a positive statement about the business but focused on what customers value.
