THE COMPETITOR ATTACK

MECHANISM

Direct comparison that makes competition the foil.

? THE QUESTION

"What truth about the competition benefits us?"

PROCESS

Work through these questions to generate ideas:

  1. What do they claim that we can challenge?
  2. What do they do poorly that we do well?
  3. What assumption about them can we overturn?
  4. What comparison flatters us?

EXAMPLES

Ideas in this space might look like:

  • Side-by-side comparison that's fair but devastating
  • Acknowledging competitor strength while showing your own
  • Playful rivalry that entertains rather than attacks
