Purpose
The Research Brain Voice Of Customer Positioning Mining Framework defines how MWMS systematically collects, extracts, and structures real customer language, problems, motivations, and beliefs to strengthen positioning and messaging.
Customers already describe:
- their problems
- their frustrations
- their desires
- their objections
- their goals
The system must capture and use this language.
This framework ensures MWMS builds positioning and messaging from:
→ real customer insight
not:
→ internal assumptions
Core Principle
The best messaging comes from the customer, not the company.
If MWMS does not use customer language:
→ messaging becomes weak

Capture exact phrases.
Avoid rewriting.
Raw language is more powerful.

Organise into:
- problem language
- benefit language
- objection language
- identity language
Step 6 — Apply

VOC Categories
- Problem Language
How customers describe their pain.

What customers want.
- Objection Language
Why customers hesitate.
- Outcome Language
What success looks like.
- Identity Language
How customers see themselves.
- Comparison Language
How customers compare options.
Pattern Importance Rule
Repeated phrases are critical.
If multiple customers say the same thing:
→ it must be used
Emotion Rule
VOC must capture emotional intensity.
Examples:

Emotion drives action.
Clarity Rule
VOC language must be:

- direct
- specific
Avoid internal translation.
Application Rule
VOC must directly influence:

If VOC is collected but not used:
→ it has no value
Three Why Integration

Segmentation Integration
Different segments may use different language.
VOC must be segmented.
Creative Integration
VOC feeds:
- hooks
- storylines
- core messaging
Testing Rule
