In college, I was a brand ambassador for an up-and-coming sports drink.

We’d drive to training camps around the Midwest, pop up a table, and hand out samples.

Our entire pitch lived on one simple piece of marketing: a laminated stand that read Us vs. The Other Guys.

It listed our lower sugar and higher electrolytes side-by-side with the market leaders.

That drink is currently valued at $5.6 billion.

Us vs. The Other Guys remains a simple, sincere way to show us what makes you better.
