Market positioning canvas workshop: get clarity on what your website is really saying (and what to fix first)

For UK B2B tech teams who need their positioning to land — so the site, sales deck, and campaigns compound instead of resetting.

  • Draft positioning statement + remarkable difference (a stake in the ground)
  • 3 key messages (in your language, not agency-speak)
  • Proof inventory + proof gaps (what to show, what to stop claiming)
  • Clear boundaries (who it’s not for + what you won’t compete on)
  • Prioritised next steps (what to change first + why)

If your positioning isn't clear, every channel gets more expensive

Most B2B teams don’t have a “traffic problem.” They have a clarity problem: the website is trying to be credible to everyone, so it converts no one.

This workshop makes the implicit explicit — what your site currently communicates, where the narrative breaks, and what to change first so marketing and sales can compound.

  • You're attracting the wrong conversations

    If the page reads like a generalist, you’ll get generalist leads: lower intent, higher sales friction, and more discount pressure.

    Low-fit pipeline

  • Your message changes every time someone asks “so what do you do?”

    When you can’t say it cleanly, the site can’t either — and every campaign becomes a new explanation project.

    Constant reset

  • Competitors sound identical (and buyers can't tell the difference)

    If “quality, trusted, end-to-end” is all anyone can say, you get compared on price and familiarity.

    Commodity trap

  • You’re claiming outcomes you can’t prove (yet)

    Over-claiming reduces trust. Under-claiming reduces urgency. Most sites do both across different pages.

    Credibility leak

  • The site doesn't align sales, product, and marketing

    Different teams tell different stories, so buyers hear contradictions across touchpoints.

    Internal drag

What you get from the market positioning canvas workshop

You’ll leave with a clear first draft of your positioning and a practical list of what to change first — grounded in what your website is already communicating today.

clipboard-move-pink-box

Market context locked

A chosen beachhead ICP/situation, a clear list of alternatives (including DIY/do-nothing), and a working category/frame.

list-check-icon-pink-box

Positioning core (draft, but defensible)

A draft positioning statement, one remarkable difference in plain English, and the JTBD articulated as a buyer outcome.

calendar-icon-pink-box

Expression of proof

3 key messages, a proof inventory, and a proof gaps list so you know what claims to keep, cut, or create evidence for.

file-pink-box

Strategic constraints (anti-positioning)

4–6 boundaries: who you’re not for, what you won’t do, and what you won’t compete on — so the positioning becomes defensible.

How it works

From website evidence to a clean positioning draft — in one session.

  • Pre-work

    We build the first draft from your site before you show up

    We review your website and key pages, pull evidence, and pre-populate the canvas with assumptions and “unknowns to validate live.”

    • Website URL
    • Top pages (homepage, product/solution, pricing/how it works, case studies, about/differentiators)
    • 3–5 competitor URLs (or a list of alternatives)
    • ICP hints (job titles, industries, deal size, geo)
  • 2-hour workshop

    We pressure-test the narrative and lock the choices that drive conversion

    In the session, we walk through four canvas sections: Market Context, Positioning Core, Expression of Proof, and Strategic Constraints.

    • What your website currently says (even if it’s accidental)
    • Choose the ICP + category frame
    • Draft the positioning statement and remarkable difference
    • Create messages + proof plan
    • Set boundaries so it’s defensible
  • Leave with outputs

    Walk out with a usable draft and a clear list of what to change first

    You leave with a populated canvas, a clean narrative you can use internally, and prioritised recommendations to improve clarity and conversion.

    • Populated Market Positioning Canvas (with assumptions + evidence)
    • Draft positioning statement + remarkable difference
    • 3 key messages (ready to apply to web + sales)
    • Prioritised next steps (what to change first + why)

Fit check

Is this market positioning canvas workshop for you?

If you're in the “Best fit” box, you’ll leave with a clear first draft of your positioning that your team can align behind (and your website can actually communicate).

check-circle-pink-box

Best fit if...

  • UK B2B tech
  • You have a working product + at least some buyer signal
  • You’re generating demand (or about to) but clarity is limiting conversion
  • Sales cycles feel harder than they should because buyers don’t “get it” quickly
  • Different people describe the company differently
Common reasons teams book
  • Homepage doesn’t convert consistently
  • Competitors sound the same and you need differentiation
  • Team alignment is messy (sales vs marketing vs product story)
  • You’re updating the website and need the narrative locked first
x-circle-icon-pink-box

Not a fit if...

  • You’re pre-product with no buyer learning yet
  • You only want tactical channel tips (ads/SEO) without narrative decisions
  • You’re not willing to make trade-offs (positioning requires them)

We’ll scan your site + offer + funnel and send a clear breakdown of what’s blocking conversion and pipeline, so when you’re ready for a workshop, you’re working from evidence (not guesses).

Get clarity in one session — or we’ll tell you it’s not the right next step

This isn’t a brainstorm. It’s a decision-led workshop that turns what your website says into what it should say.

repeat-circle-pink-box

"We’ve tried positioning before"

Most positioning work fails because it stays abstract. We start from website evidence and force decisions you can actually communicate.

Evidence-led + decision-led → usable draft.

pencil-square-icon-pink-box

"We need execution, not another doc"

Agreed. That’s why you leave with a prioritised list of what to change first (pages, proof, messaging) so execution can start immediately.

Clarity → faster implementation.

"We don't have time"

Two hours now saves weeks of rework across campaigns, decks, and web pages. Pre-work is minimal — we do the heavy lifting.

Low time cost; high leverage.

layers-pink-box

"How is this different?"

We build a single-page canvas that includes the trade-offs (anti-positioning) most teams avoid — which is what makes the positioning defensible.

Trade-offs create differentiation.
