In marketing we use position the same way; we use positioning to refer to product relative to other competing products in the market, i.e. product A is positioned to appeal to middle income group. Brand B is positioned to appeal to the go-getters.
Positioning of products is a process and there are steps that are used to come up with a specific position for specific product. Positioning is therefore the process of putting a product in a location in reference to the competition and the entire market. |

A straight line helps us to avoid wasting time, digressive conversations, subtle references to a certain attraction and political malfeasance. The straight-line reference is a way of avoiding behavioral meandering so as to stay focused on what’s in front of you. In the business sector, the phrase ‘cradle to grave’ contract was used to describe the linear progression of a career path. Career advancement reflected a climb up a ladder of a silo in which professional perspectives were shaped by the boundaries of that narrow focus. |
