Outgoing Global Volunteer is one of the core departments in AIESEC as it is related to EXCHANGE. We are those who will make sure that the youth in our country will pick the best GV projects and will have an amazing experience in a foreign country. Global Volunteer is our newest program and it surged from the need of having shorter experiences (from 6 - 8 weeks) in the development sector.

Fundamentals for a member in oGV:

Without buyer personas we wouldn’t know what content to create, which material to share, how we should direct our marketing efforts or where we can improve our presence. They are the context of the narrative, the framework which houses our efforts. They are the compass which determines the direction of our journey and where we should be going.

Customer Flow represents the movement of a customer through the experience provided by the organization or company. Directly linked to the customer journey, the customer flow outlines the stages, statuses and activities that the person or organization goes through when engaging as a customer.

In AIESEC it consist of five phases:

A value proposition refers to the value of an organisation, as AIESEC, and what it promises to deliver to the young people (customers). The main goal is that it tells why people should go in an exchange or choose one of our products (oGV, oGT or oGE).

A value proposition is also a declaration of intent or a statement that introduces a company's brand to consumers by telling them what the company stands for, how it operates, and why it deserves their business.

This statement, if worded right, convinces a potential consumer that one particular product or service the company offers will add more value or better solve a problem for them than other similar offerings will.

A successful brand shapes customers’ experiences by embedding the fundamental value proposition in offerings’ every feature. For BMW, “the Ultimate Driving Machine” is much more than a slogan; it informs the company’s manufacturing and design choices. In 2000, Mercedes-Benz introduced a system that automatically controls the distance between a Mercedes and the car in front. BMW would not consider developing such a feature unless it amplified rather than diminished the driving experience.

Key Takeaways

• A company's value proposition tells a customer the number one reason why a product or service is best suited for that particular customer.

• A successful value proposition should be communicated to customers directly, either via the company's web site or other marketing or advertising.

• Value propositions can follow different formats, as long as they are "on brand" and unique and specific to the company in question.
