Break down the elements of your messaging. What sets you apart from the competition? All that goes down here. Focus on how your product makes a difference for your customers. It could be 2 pillars or even three.
| Key values | Value 1: Increase Operational Efficiencies | Value 2: Deliver Better Products Faster | Value 3: Reduce Compliance Risk |
|---|---|---|---|
| Promise | |||
| Efficiency: | |||
| Maximize R&D and frontline worker productivity. | Velocity: | ||
| Accelerate speed to market. | Security: | ||
| Compliance without compromise. | |||
| Customer pain | |||
| Describe common pain points with actual customer quotes. | Organizations waste time and resources aiming to improve in-store compliance, create ‘knowledge gaps’ between teams resulting in differences in customer experience across store locations. | Companies lack visibility into critical forecasting data that should inform decisions. The toolstack, and knowledge, are also missing prohibiting organizations from executing planning decisions at scale without dramatically increasing costs. | Full compliance is unrealistic but big fines can be avoided by automated compliance warnings and calculating costs when shifts change. |
| ACME promise | ACME provides a complete Workforce Management solution without the need to spend any resources on using AI to optimize your planning. If integrations are necessary for any reason, businesses can integrate once and have access to the entire platform. | ACME provides an end-to-end view of how your budget decisions will impact your long-term staffing decisions. The ability to visualize multiple what-if scenarios and the impact of future staffing levels creates a more predictable workforce planning workflow. | With automated compliance, organizations can scan every schedule, allowing planners to identify and remediate violations before the schedule is published. |

| List specific analyst reports, customer stories or testimonials that support this pillar. | • One platform to maintain. | ||
| • End-to-end customer support from one provider. | |||
