Who Is Talking About You? 

Master word of mouth marketing with this fun,  practical, hands-on guide.

 

With straightforward advice and humor, marketing expert Andy Sernovitz
will show you how the world’s most respected and profitable companies
get their best customers for free through the power of word of mouth.

  • 3 Reasons People Talk About You
  • 4 Rules of Word of Mouth Marketing
  • 5 Ts of Word of Mouth Marketing
  • 6 Big Ideas: Deep Stuff That Changes Marketing Forever

Learn
the five essential steps that make word of mouth work and everything
you need to get started using them. Understand the real purpose of
blogs, communities, viral email, evangelists, and buzz—when to use them
and how simple it is to make them work.

Learn what sparks the
irrepressible enthusiasm of Apple and TiVo fans. Understand why
everyone is talking about a certain restaurant, car, band, or dry
cleaner—and why other businesses and products are ignored. Discover why
some products become huge successes without a penny of promotion—and
why some multi-million-dollar advertising campaigns fail to get
noticed.

Open your eyes to a new way of doing business—that
honest marketing makes more money, because customers who trust you will
talk about you. Learn how to be the remarkable company that people want
to share with their friends.
