Viral marketing
- Thread starter TechFox
- Start date
Yep, I love viral marketing... I am a big fan of it in both its online and offline versions (offline it carries alot of similarities to the softer side of guerrilla marketing) and think if done properly it can deliver better results than any other marketing segment, even advertising!
<open cheap plug> For those vaguely interested, I have written about Word of Mouth (WoM) campaigns in the May newsletter on the 10Yetis site... http://www.10yetis.co.uk/newsletter.html <close cheap plug>
The one area of caution I would say about WoM is that in its internet form it is, relatively speaking, still at an early stage of development so you are more likely to find people claiming they can do it without knowing the science, skills and stats behind it. (Getting flashback of the early webdesign market :wink: ).

Tell us more Mike, currently I haven't heard anything new. So far I'm just thinking of it as the same sort of marketing that has been around since the beginning of time..
Do you have a new slant ?
