One of the main reasons why most digital companies in Singapore fail to achieve their set goals is because they are yet to master the art of coming up with an effective value proposition. Yes, slogans can help you build your brand by letting customers know what you are offering. 

The first thing to note is that slogans are not value propositions. On the contrary, a value proposition is a unique message that you convey to the target audience to motivate and encourage them to buy your products or request for your services. It has to be relevant to the consumer if it is to succeed in helping your business get more customers.

Today we look at five key aspects that you need to consider when creating a value proposition for your Singapore e-commerce business.

Emotions

The key to selling online is eliciting positive emotions when conversing with the customers. As you create the value proposition, you should put more emphasis on the attractive aspects of your services and products.

Economics

In the current economy, most people are looking for ways of saving money. Based on this fact, it is recommended to highlight the financial benefits that customers will get when they purchase your product. If your products are more affordable than the alternatives, mention that on the landing page. Indicate the amount of money that they will save when they purchase from you.
