Creating an Automatic Marketing Culture
Are you one of those people who rarely forwards emails? Yet on that rare occasion, something strikes you as special – and you are inspired to “pass-it-on.” Something about it clicked with you. Perhaps you can’t even explain it; a certain je ne sais quoi. That “something” is often described by marketers as “stickiness.” Stickiness is typically associated with “Viral Marketing.”
But who wants to spread a virus? When we connect with a message, a video, a website – we automatically engage with it, and want to share it. We don’t even have to be asked, because it’s automatic. At this Five Good Ideas session, participants discovered five things your organization can do to grow an automatic marketing culture – and have your messages exponentially spread by your constituents.
