Sinopse

Confusing Instructions examines the widespread problem of unclear communication in product manuals and safety warnings, arguing that effective instruction is crucial for business success. Companies often prioritize technical accuracy or legal jargon, leading to user frustration and errors. The book highlights how user-centered design, incorporating principles of cognitive psychology, can improve customer satisfaction and mitigate risks. For example, poorly designed instructions can lead to increased product returns and even legal liabilities, underscoring the importance of clarity.

The book progresses from foundational principles of effective communication to case studies of both well-documented and poorly documented products. It then offers a framework for developing user-centered instructions, providing practical guidelines and templates. Unique insights are drawn from usability studies and analyses of customer support logs, pinpointing common communication breakdowns. By understanding how users process information, companies can create clearer and more effective product documentation.

Ultimately, Confusing Instructions offers a practical approach to improving product manuals, safety warnings, and labeling, making it a valuable resource for product managers, engineers, technical writers, and business leaders. The book emphasizes that investing in clear instructions not only reduces errors but also enhances customer loyalty and protects against potential legal issues. This comprehensive guide provides a roadmap for creating user-friendly documentation that benefits both businesses and consumers.

De-Positioning - The Secret...

Todd Irwin

What is the brand strategy Apple, Starbucks, and other market leaders have mastered for decades, yet never name? It’s not differentiation. It’s not purpose. It’s something far more powerful, and in today’s hyper-competitive business world, it’s the only strategy that consistently wins.
It’s called De-Positioning, a method that turns your competitor’s strengths into liabilities while positioning your brand as the only solution your customer truly trusts. De-Positioning works by identifying the most critical problem your customer needs solved, exposing how your competitors fail to solve it, and making your brand the clear, inevitable choice. When applied with discipline, it renders competitors irrelevant.
In this book, brand strategy veteran Todd Irwin shares the exact process he’s used to help Fortune 500 giants and disruptive VC-backed startups dominate their markets. He explains why “being different” no longer works, how to uncover your market’s Hero Pain Point, and how to build an unshakable competitive advantage rooted in hard strategy, not hype.
Drawing on three decades in the trenches and case studies from brands like Apple, Volvo, and Zoom, Irwin shows how De-Positioning becomes the unifying force behind every decision, message, and customer interaction. This is not a marketing gimmick. It’s a battle-tested, repeatable system for building a brand so ultra-relevant and trusted that your competitors fade into the background.
If you’re ready to stop fighting for attention and start dominating your market, this is your brand strategy playbook
