Brief, practical definitions and questions to answer for each item:
1) What does “Product” mean?
- Definition: The product is anything offered to satisfy a need or want — a physical good, a service, an experience, or a combination. It includes features, quality, design, brand, packaging, and any associated services (warranty, support).
- Key aspects: core benefit (what problem it solves), actual product (features/specs), augmented product (warranty, delivery, support).
- Quick questions: What need does it meet? What are its main features and benefits? How is it different from alternatives?
2) Who buys it
- Definition: The people or organizations that will purchase/use the product — your target market or customer segments.
- How to define: demographics, psychographics, behaviors, needs, use cases, decision-makers and influencers.
- Quick questions: Who has the problem your product solves? Who makes the buying decision? Who influences that decision? What are their priorities and budgets?
3) How much it costs
- Definition: The price charged to the customer, set by pricing strategy and constraints.
- Factors that determine price: production and distribution costs, perceived value, competitor pricing, market demand, positioning, legal/market constraints.
- Common strategies: cost-plus, value-based, penetration, skimming, competitive pricing, freemium.
- Quick questions: What price reflects the value to the customer? What prices do competitors charge? What margin do you need?
4) What you are selling
- Definition: The specific offer you present — a combination of product features, benefits, brand promise, and any additional services.
- Emphasis: sell benefits/solutions, not just features. Your value proposition summarizes why someone should buy.
- Quick questions: What is the core benefit? What makes your offer unique? What guarantee or proof do you provide?
5) Where you sell it
- Definition: The distribution channels and locations where customers can buy or access the product.
- Options: direct (your website, stores), indirect (retailers, wholesalers, marketplaces), B2B channels, partners, pop-ups, events.
- Considerations: customer convenience, channel margins, control, reach, inventory logistics.
- Quick questions: Where do your customers expect to buy? Which channels reach your target efficiently? What are the costs and trade-offs of each channel?
If you want, tell me about a specific product or idea and I’ll map these five items to it (target buyers, pricing option, value proposition, and best places to sell).
