#384: BOOK - "Positioning", By; Al Reis - & Jack Trout,

Send us a text

Want a shortcut to standing out without shouting louder? We explore how Positioning by Al Ries and Jack Trout can transform the way you think about your work, your brand, and your creative edge. The goal isn’t to be incrementally better than people with bigger budgets and longer résumés—it’s to be unmistakably different in a way the audience understands in seconds.

We unpack the staircase metaphor for growth and put “different over better” into practice with concrete examples. From reimagining a stand-up set by weaving in magic, music, and mentalism to crafting unorthodox strategies in jiu-jitsu and basketball, we show how a clear position becomes your playbook under pressure. Instead of competing in someone else’s lane, you create a lane where your promise and style define the rules. That shift clarifies your message, accelerates feedback, and makes marketing a matter of proof, not persuasion.

You’ll also hear why your circle acts like an algorithm for ambition—surround yourself with people who defend their edge and your standards rise. Above all, we come back to simplicity as the mark of real genius: distill a complex idea into a single, memorable promise, then build options beneath it like a pyramid. When your why is crisp, decisions get easier, tactics align, and you become findable in a noisy world. If you’ve been grinding for attention, this is your reframe: carve a niche, say it cleanly, deliver it consistently.

If this sparked a new way to think about your craft, follow the show, share it with a friend who needs a positioning reboot, and leave a quick review telling us your one-line why.
