No one understands
what you do.
Because you haven’t decided yet.
I help founders of complex products stop losing business to simpler competitors.
By making the positioning decisions that everything else depends on.
It’s a common challenge:
Your product fits a lot of markets.
So you try to win all of them.
Which feels safe.
But eats your company…
Jack of all trades.
Not an expert in theirs.
Endless rewrites.
Of generic nothing.
Cross-purposes.
Your team’s making sensible calls that pull in different directions. Individually smart, collectively messy.
Lost business.
Because people buy the story they can repeat.
I’m Will Murray,
a Scottish Brand Positioning Strategist in The Hague.
I get it. Your product is complicated and its applications are endless.
But the broader your appeal, the harder it is to understand.
Positioning is deciding who you sell to, how you reach them, and why they choose you. Then shaping the business around those answers.
Most founders delay it. Staying broad feels safer than picking a direction.
But when you're for everyone, you're generic.
It's the work that sits on desks for years.
With me, it takes weeks – and most of that time is mine, not yours.
I start with deep research: your market, your competitors, your customers’ pain points, and how your own team already talks about what you do. We shape the direction and strategy together, with the evidence in front of us. Then I do the work that aligns the company around what you've chosen.
At the end, you have a central idea that holds up, a team pulling the same way, and the right people coming to you.
The positioning paradox:
Naming one thing is how buyers see the rest of what you can do.
