Tactic Description:
Marc explains how PowerImporter grew by solving one specific, repetitive pain – syncing Airtable with Webflow. Instead of becoming a “data sync platform,” it nailed this one integration with speed, reliability, and simplicity.
Priority: Short-term
Difficulty: Easy
Best Stage: Early Growth
Example / Use Case:
The product homepage didn’t list endless use cases. It clearly stated: “Sync Airtable to Webflow, automatically.” This clarity led to high-converting traffic from Webflow forums and SEO.
Founder Quote / Mindset:
“Pick one boring, painful task. Be the best at it.”

💡 How a Good Marketer Would Solve This:
They’d center all messaging on one painful job-to-be-done and direct all traffic, onboarding, and SEO toward that use case.
✅ Implementation Checklist:
- Interview 10 customers on what job they actually hired the product for
- Strip homepage copy down to 1 core use case
- Optimize SEO for that specific problem (long-tail)
- Create 2–3 walkthrough tutorials that only show that use case
- Resist adding other integrations/features until product-led growth kicks in
