Unique Selling Proposition Generator

Create compelling USPs that clearly communicate your unique value to customers

What is a Unique Selling Proposition (USP)?

A Unique Selling Proposition (USP) is a clear statement that describes the unique benefit your product or service provides, how it solves customers' needs, and what distinguishes it from the competition. Your USP is the foundation of your marketing messaging and brand positioning.

Elements of a Strong USP:

  • Specific: Clearly states what you do and who you serve
  • Benefit-Focused: Emphasizes the value to the customer, not just features
  • Unique: Highlights what makes you different from competitors
  • Clear: Easy to understand in one sentence
  • Credible: Something you can actually deliver on

Examples of Great USPs:

FedEx

"When it absolutely, positively has to be there overnight."

Clear benefit (overnight delivery) + unique promise (absolutely, positively)

Slack

"Where work happens."

Simple, memorable, and positions them as the central hub for work collaboration

Dollar Shave Club

"Shave time. Shave money."

Clever wordplay that communicates convenience and cost savings

Common USP Mistakes to Avoid

✗

Being too generic

"We provide quality products at great prices" could apply to anyone

✗

Focusing only on features

"We have 50+ integrations" - customers care about benefits, not just features

✗

Making claims you can't back up

"The best solution in the world" is subjective and hard to prove

✗

Being too long or complex

If you can't say it in one sentence, it's probably too complicated

✗

Ignoring your target audience

"For everyone" usually means "for no one" - be specific about who you serve
