mompetitor 

A mompetitor is a woman drawn into the competitive arena of motherhood by simply giving birth to her first child. Mompetitors have ready access to height, weight, age of potty training prowess, SAT scores, and other personal statistics of their children so that they can compare with other mompetitors at any time. See also mompetition.

The mompetitors took their seats at the Honor roll assembly, each quickly scanning the program to count the number of awards their child would be receiving in comparison to the others.

mompetitor 

a mom who ascribes to be perfect and better in every way then the other mothers she encounters in her community- and who constantly preaches her parenting methodology to other moms to the extent that it is obvious their validation comes from convincing themselves they are doing a good job at childrearing

you are at the playground with your kids. a casual chat begins between you and another mom. she asks you if your two year old is potty trained- when you reply your child i still in diapers, the mompetitor in her becomes apparent when she tells you how she toilet trained her kid at six months and a seal just died because of how much space your kid's butt is taking up in landfills.

Competitor Seeding

When a salesperson mentions a competitor by name while trying to sound better than them, but accidentally plants that competitor in the customer’s mind and sends them off to research them.

Competitor seeding is when you weaken your own pitch by defining yourself in relation to someone else. Instead of sounding like the obvious choice, you sound like a reaction.

In sales:

The moment you name the competitor, the buyer starts wondering:

• Who are they?

• Should I check them out?

• Why are you talking about them so much?

Better move:

Don’t name the competitor.

Name the gap.

“Most solutions in this category don’t include this, so teams end up paying for it separately. We built it in from the start.”

Bottom line:

If you name your competitor, you’re doing their advertising.

If you name the capability gap, you’re doing your own positioning.

“Unlike Competitor X, we include this feature.”

“Congrats. You just did Competitor X’s marketing for free. That’s competitor seeding!”
