I start by research the product category (or possible categories sometimes) and understand the market.
Then I analyze each competitor: customer reviews, social listening, landing pages, customer stories. It gives me a general idea of the customer journeys for each competitor as well as their positioning and messaging.
After this, I start doing customer research for the product I'm in charge of differentiating with surveys, interviews, and the same things I do for the competitors.
As I analyze my research, I start to come up with gaps in the category and when I'm done I usually have enough insights to find key differentiators.

Hello @alexandracote
Execution and hands-on tasks in my personal case. I am a freelancer and what I offer as a product is to execute tasks and not strategy or ideas. I leave that for the Head of Growth or Head of Marketing.
Cheers,
Customer support is a huge one, especially if you market toward SMBs. That personalized support or 1:1 coaching can make a world's difference. You don't get that out of larger organizations.
