Having the solid core product is imperative! In fact, everything start from there. Then, adding value need more and more effort in upper layers. Differentiate the right product with the right audience is something difficult... it require creativity and some experience of the niche. Thanks for you comment... very valuable! You’re right.

So, if you have any small idea which you think is beneficial you should give it a shot. One example i recall from the book is Dinosaur shaped pasta from Chef Boyardee. This simple concept made the company millions and didnt require them to do that much work.

That's a post to stimulate some thought! I think this is why so many people actually fail. To be original and to offer something that everyone else isn't already offering, takes a lot of work. You only have to look at all the identical emails that get sent out when affiliates promote the next big launch. The only way they can distinguish themselves is by trying to offer a bonus that nobody else offers. And in many cases their bonus isn't worth bothering with. If the product was so good you'd think they would have studied it and be able to talk a little bit about their own views. Yes, differentiation is good, but you need a solid core product to begin with. HI Hans.

However, I'll think about something to make a post on this subject. Of course, I don't have the holy truth - not so far - but maybe I can give some hints that may help you.

For bloggers, personality is a differentiation but to be really unique, what's the point that really matters? I have seen a blog with very clean and professional design. It certainly is a differentiation, but I've also seen other blogs that have amateurish design but with significant readership. It this something you can nail down? I know you're talking about creativity, but do you have any recommendation to have the advantage? I’ve been thinking about my blog as a product, but never in such details.
