Brian and Dave get into why that's a positioning problem, not a branding one: the idea, popularized by Al Ries and Jack Trout, that being better isn't enough if people can't quickly tell why you're different — or file you somewhere specific in their head. They work through the four questions that force a real position, why narrowing your audience feels like turning away money (and usually isn't), and where a sharp position stops working. Monday Move: replace your bio with one sentence — \"I help [this specific person] get [this specific outcome] without [the thing they hate about the usual path]\" — and let the right people find themselves in it.\nWritten version and this week's Monday Move: The Operator's Library at mmsvegas.com.","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/aQIfTzLICsQKCtBAGh5CfKZmI8srAf5E3AuKQIGsZ9E/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS9jM2E0/MDA5N2EzMWVlYTVk/NTNiYTIwYThlY2Yy/NTQ2YS5wbmc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
