John delivered a hands-on interactive business model workshop helping us framing our thinking and identifying and evaluating the business potential of our new initiative. John used varied group methods that sparked open discussion and new ways of thinking about our assumptions, the marketplace and key stakeholders. We recommend John for his expertise and his detailed approach to workshop preparation and delivery to meet outcomes.
Most consultants are good at talking, John is all about listening and delivering valuable results. Our Value proposition workshop was straight to the point and allowed the management team to agree on common goals. Later, we contacted Standpoint to help us with our website copywriting and content creation. Once again, John delivered great content in no time.
Starting ACTAGIS, we knew that digital channels are indispensable to business development. Standpoint has exceeded our expectations and allowed us to significantly increase sales. It would be hard to find a better service!
John quickly understood the needs of my company: understanding the business model, analyzing the profile and needs of customers, the quality of the message, and sensitivity to the "touch and feel" of the digital vector. Returns from customers and prospects are excellent and business is boosted.
John is a great coach for our team. He helped us on the general strategy, digital marketing and communication areas. Always thinking outside of the box, listening carefully to our challenges and coming up with creative solutions. John is not a talker, he is a real doer.
John always tries to understand even the most complex projects. He identifies with the client and offers simple, pragmatic and clear advice. Sensitive and human, he offers a new perspective on the good development of the product. Thank you.

John quickly understood the needs of my company, as well as those of one of the companies I chair: understanding the business model, analyzing the profile and needs of customers, the quality of the message, and sensitivity to the "touch and feel" of the digital vector. Returns from customers and prospects are excellent and business is boosted. In the current environment of profound changes in the way of addressing its customers/prospects, the need to review and modernize one's approach is essential! Standpoint is here to help you.

Workshop
Customer Standpoint
You think you know your clients. If you are actually wrong or blind to certain important parts, you are losing business.
To really satisfy your clients and to reliably attract new ones, you need to truly understand your customer.
During this one-day workshop, we work together with your management team, key employees and, whenever possible, with existing customers, on five exercises to define the company's Value Proposition.
We extensively analyse the customer's standpoint and how the company delivers on it with the best possible experience.
Two experienced facilitators will pilot this day.
We deliver the company's Value Proposition composed of:
- Prioritised customer needs
- Extension of offer to full customer experience
- Company's strengths
Value Proposition from the Customer's Standpoint

Workshop
Your Context, Your Vision
Why are you doing what you are doing? What do you want to accomplish? Can you express it clearly? Can each and every employee express it clearly.
If you can't, or if your employees can't, you are just in your routine. It can be a good routine, but you are missing out on a strong motivator.
During this one-day workshop, we work together with your management team on a sequence of 6-7 exercises to give clarity to the company's situation and its aspiration to define the starting point of the growth process.
This workshop is especially powerful following the previous workshop "Customer Standpoint", with the new perspective defined in Value Proposition from the Customer Standpoint.
We deliver:
- Brand summary
- Risks and opportunities
- Customer segmentation and offer
Your Context, Your Vision, Clarified

Workshop
Company Storytelling
How do you talk about what you do? If you ramble, if you just describe your activities, you are not clearly communicating your purpose.
To grow your business, you have to carefully craft the story you are telling.
With the output of the workshops "Customer Standpoint" and "Your Context, your Vision", we work behind the scenes to prepare variants of the company's one-liner and story script.
Then, during this one-day workshop, we work together with your management team to find the company's voice and finalize the company's story. We define the sub-story for each product line.
We deliver:
- Company one-liner
- Company story script
- Product specific scripts
