I had a conversation with a sales rep today about a competitor of our firm. She made the observation that a member of her team that worked at said competitor was not calling on the same level person (higher now) than she did with the other firm. This made sense given the competitors product line, but poses a challenge on how to best reach our audience and not get confused with this competitor as they are well known and the market share leader.
Our target buyer is the higher end executive and our brand/product offering match this criteria. It is a little like selling a BMW 7 series vs. a Toyota Highlander, both cars but not aimed at the same market. The challenge now is to craft this higher end message to reach the correct audience and bnot get pulled down stream to a market where the message will not resonate as well.
