What does make you stand out from the competition?
Business Marketing with Nika
24 replies
If your product doesn't have a competitor:
– either you are a Genius, 🙂
– or probably haven't done proper marketing research (so something is wrong there).
You probably know where I am heading to. 😀
There is little chance that your product is the only one in the world, so I reckon you belong to the second group.
The question is:
– What makes you stand out from the competition (or better: from the best competitor in the market)?
Tell about your product and proposition value. 👇
✅ Name your product and what it does.
✅ Name your biggest competitor.
✅ Your "stand out" thing.
✅ Link to your product.
Keep it in bullet points and short.

@busmark_w_nika Supademo is a great product. They focus mostly on creating screenshot based simple demos. Fable on the other hand - creates HTML interactive demos.

I see exactly what you mean. For our part, we focus on transactional messages, such as user authentication, order confirmation, appointment reminders and so on. So these are messages that are triggered by users, unlike marketing messages, which are triggered by the company and are subject to much more user fatigue if done too frequently.

Anyway, if you want to shine like a diamond among mere rocks, show us why your product's sparkle outshines the rest. Just like how "Her Ideal Match" uses data science to transform dating profiles, your innovation should have that unique twist that sets it apart. So, what's your secret sauce?

Great questions!
- We have many features and connectors (and they too have connectors that we don't currently support), so depending on what APIs & data you need, you might want to use one or the other
- Databar offers embeddable visualizations for tables (if you need to visualize your data)
- Databar scales really well so you can run many more enrichments much faster
- Our pricing is different and I think more reasonable with a more pay-for-what-you-use approach
Thanks for this thread, Nika! As someone who LOVES competitive research, I ask myself this question all the time. I've got the feeling that many founders don't pay enough attention to alternative solutions that their potential customers have.
Our products don't exist in a vacuum! If your tool isn't good enough, users will find 10 alternatives on Google in the blink of an eye.
✅ Ranking Raccoon, the spam-free link-building platform for genuine SEOs, marketers, and small businesses.
✅ We have several buckets of competitors: established email automation platforms for those who build links 'the old way' (e.g. Respona, Postaga), new players - link-building tools for specific niches (e.g. LinkTopia), and link-building marketplaces where you find paid backlink opportunities (e.g. Linkly).
✅ On Ranking Raccoon, you can build links directly with verified sites - without cold emails, spam, and paid link offers.
✅ https://www.rankingraccoon.com/ - we're working hard to improve the platform, so any feedback is welcome!
@busmark_w_nika we have a flat monthly subscription fee of 25$/user - and you can build unlimited backlinks, which means huge savings compared to the normal practice of buying backlinks (one backlink nowadays costs $100 on average)
Having a laser-focused understanding of your target audience and their needs that your product uniquely addresses better than alternatives. Nailing that product-market fit is 🔑. Also having a stellar team that can execute on the vision and adapt quickly based on user feedback to keep that fit tight as you scale.

When you provide additional value, your product always stands out. It’s a common saying that you must offer a few extra features compared to your competitors—this will help you stand out.
