Get People To Pass You Around by Dr. Kevin Nunley
--------------------------
No doubt you have heard of viral marketing. Just like a common
cold, it involves having people pass an idea or product from one
person to the next.
Unlike a cold, a marketing virus is a wonderful thing to catch!
These biz-tips are a simple kind of viral marketing. I write
them for Marketing Tips Daily at memail.com, but they almost
always get picked up by other editors who send them to their
readers who send them to their list. You may be reading this tip
years after I wrote it. Amazing, isn't it?
I write the article once, then enjoy the benefits as one person
passes it to another. It's not unusual for one million people a
week to see these articles.
Look for ways you can give your product, service, or idea a
marketing virus.
* Give people a free service they can use. Your web address and
phone number are included in every product they send to others.
Free email accounts (like hotmail) and online greeting cards
are great examples.
* Start a joke that pertains to the news or common experiences in
life. If it's in an email, it can include your name. Jokes get
passed around at an unbelievable rate. Some humor experts
believe there may be as few as 7 people who come up with most of
the jokes we hear. They start them on their viral tour,
eventually reaching millions.
* Create a series of books, pamphlets, or TV commercials. A
series makes people want to tell others so they can get in on the
progression.
* Perhaps the most effective method of viral marketing is
simply being kind and helping people. Help folks for free when
you can and give paying customers more than they asked for. You
may be surprised at how fast customers tell their friends...and
in these days of email, that can be a LOT of people.
