Five different actions have been described that can be used to improve your value proposition. I have implemented every one of these actions and can definitively say that they have helped position me uniquely within whatever local work environment I found myself. Ultimately, their effectiveness is yours to determine, but if a colleague were to describe someone on their team as being "on top of the issues," "insightful," "perceptive," "action oriented," and "solutions focused," wouldn't you conclude they were capable of providing considerable value?
