Highlights
A growing number of consumers are citing word of mouth as the most important factor influencing their interest in products. With the latest Euroborometer survey showing that 58% of Europeans do not trust corporations, relying on the relative credibility, honesty and impartiality of word of mouth will continue to grow.
Two major viral and word of mouth marketing tactics exist to target the three consumer groups involved in message diffusion. Marketers need to choose the most appropriate technique depending upon whether long-term 'cool' or mass market appeal is being sought.
Viral and word of mouth marketing is most effective when promoting experiential, complex, premium, quirky and cool products.
