Can you think of the last time you saw something and you just had to tell your friends about it? Do you remember having a great experience at a restaurant and later on tweeting about it? This is, essentially, word of mouth marketing (WOMM). It's an organic way of spreading information that utilizes components of viral marketing, though unlike viral marketing, it spreads by more natural channels. In this episode, Saul Colt, Founder and Creative Director of The Idea Integration Company, shares how he's planned, created, and launched experiential and word-of-mouth campaigns that helped brands like FreshBooks, Xero, Nike, and more to stand out from competitors.
In episode 79, you'll learn:
- Why companies must embrace experiential and word of mouth marketing
- How to unforgettable experiences that capture hearts, minds, and wallets that get people talking
- How to plan and implement successful experiential and word-of-mouth campaigns
