competitive advantage?

The 4 Ps
• Product (or service)– Employee: Your “product” is the skills and talents you
provide for your employer to help them achieve their company mission. For example, as a web designer, you help the company communicate its vision to the public in an appealing manner.
– Remember that items like “10 years of experience” are not skills or talents• They can demonstrate credibility, skills and talent, but do not
in themselves present value for an employer.• Clear communication with the employer will help define your
role and their expectations.

The 4 Ps
• Product (or service)– Business: Your “product” is the benefit you sell to
your customers. For example, as a massage therapist, you provide relaxation and physical healing.
– Remember that the massage itself is not necessarily the benefit – if it does not provide what the customer is looking for, they may be disappointed.• A patient rehabilitating from an injury will likely seek a
different benefit than someone looking for relaxation.• Make sure you communicate with the customer to
recognize what they need.

The 4 Ps
• Price– Employee: What is the wage/salary you expect for
your skills and talents? What benefits will you require? • Salary.com, Monster, the Bureau for Labor Statistics,
and other job sites are useful sources to identify what a fair wage may be.
– Business: What price will you charge for your product/services? How does this compare to your competitors?
