What is a proposition
A broad term, with unclear meaning
Most often used to describe a bundle of products and/or services
Derives from the term Value Proposition which means:
A business or marketing statement that summarises why a customer should buy a
product or use a service
Customers don’t buy propositions … they buy solutions, products and services that provide
them value, which is summarised in the value proposition
What do we mean by a proposition?

Key takeaways
1. Your brand proposition sits at the top of
the proposition hierarchy – all other
propositions should flow from it.
2. People often use a messaging house
to organise and simplify their
propositions into a hierarchy.
3. A value proposition and elevator pitch
describe the bundle of features that is
your solution description in a
compelling way to your target buyer.
