The key steps in creating a value proposition include identifying your target audience, understanding the problem they are facing, defining the scope that your product or service addresses, offering a solution to the problem, and outlining the benefits the users will receive. In essence, a value proposition should clearly communicate how your product or service solves customers' problems or improves their situation, delivers specific benefits, and tells the ideal customer why they should buy from you and not from the competition.

Question was asked on:

So how do you actually create a value prop? First, identify your target, then the problem they are struggling with, followed by the scope that your product addresses, the solution it offers, and the benefit(s) users ultimately receive.

The solution is an app that offers real-time data on the least-congested routes that take users to their intended destination. The benefit is hours saved each week and no more tardiness. (Slide 6)
