    The "Uncola" Position

    Posted: 18 Oct 2019 03:50 AM PDT

    Another classic positioning strategy is to worm your way onto a ladder owned by someone else. As 7-Up did. The brilliance of this idea can only be appreciated when you comprehend the enormous share of mind enjoyed by Coke and Pepsi. Almost two out of every three soft drinks consumed in the United States are cola drinks.

    By linking the product to what was already in the mind of the project, the "uncola" position established 7-Up as an alternative to a cola drink.

    With uncola positioning, sales really took off. Since the 1968 uncola unveiling, annual net sales of the Seven-Up Company increased from $87.7 million to over $190 million. Today 7-Up is the world's third-largest selling soft drink.

    To prove the universality of positioning concepts, McCormick Communications took beautiful-music radio station WLKW, an also-ran in the providence market, and made it number one. Their theme: WLKW, the unrock station.

    To find a unique position, you must ignore conventional logic. Conventional logic says you find your concept inside yourself or inside the product.

    Not true. What you must do is look inside the prospect's mind.

    You won't find an "uncola" idea inside a 7-Up can. You find it inside the cola drinker's head.

    I would tell you more about it in the next posts.

    How to get the most out of temporary/permanent employees?

    Posted: 17 Oct 2019 07:29 PM PDT

    What is the most absolute way to for instance make a restaurant menu? if I was to get a 'hiring coordinator' and build a temporary hired team to make a menu that had food from certain parts of the world. I would hire a 'food scout' that had connections with food reviewers and restaurant owners? Get a head chef and possibly a food consultant? Have them put together a plan to get some insights and make a menu that fit the restaurant. In this sort of way, how can a business make the hiring process very specific, and get a high functioning team? Additionally how can the strategy be made to get the most profit, and most brand recognition?

    Small Mini Market owned by a family has run out of funds.

    Posted: 17 Oct 2019 07:13 PM PDT

    Hi everyone, i hope this is the right place that i can reach out for advice or any type of support somewhat long post ahead. My parents own a small mini market which opened up about 1 month ago. The whole process has been ridiculous, as we had our General contractor bail out half way thru the project and my dad was naive enough to pay him in advance. The contractor had agreed to wrap up all construction by December of last year, and by November of last year is when he walked out and didn't come back to finish at all. Between November and August, my family and i worked on the remodeling of the business to get it ready for inspections and keep the ball rolling. Between that time, we were still paying rent and my parents were no longer working. Sometime in May, my parents came to me and told me that they had zero dollars and that they needed to get more in order to get the project going. I am financially tight on money as well as i have been lending them my credit cards to pay for equipment and anything else, yet i am the one to pay for the monthly bills. Back in May, my parents shared the idea that i could buy their home and pull out the equity it had already built up in order to get some money going. So i bought my parents house and got about $60k out of it. We were okay money-wise until they opened up and needed to buy merchandise. The money quickly ran out and now i am greeted with another "We ran out of money". I don't know exactly where to look for or what to do to get some more money and keep this whole business from sinking down. Most SBA loans or so, usually take about a couple of months to get reviewed and accepted/denied.

    Posted: 17 Oct 2019 09:57 PM PDT

    Remote working is becoming more popular than ever. A study released by the Swiss office provider IWG found that 70% of professionals work remotely at least one day a week, while 53% work remotely for at least half of the week. Some multinationals have their entire staff working remotely, with no fixed office presence at all, which can result in having employees situated all over the world...read more
