Authentic, sustainable word of mouth marketing is one of the truest forms of public relations, and it can't be manufactured or bought. And yet, as more institutions dedicate dollars to word of mouth and buzz marketing programs, how can you build an effective, meaningful movement for your brand that will directly impact your bottom line? How can you identify internal and external brand advocates already speaking out on your behalf and work with them to develop a natural two-way word of mouth program?
Church will explain how word of mouth marketing works and how it doesn't. You'll learn how to identify PR opportunities for your brand, with authenticity and measurement in mind. You'll see how to identify passion conversations versus product conversations and how to "open the kimono" to your customers and fans.
He will share successful case studies, plus lessons from the book "Brains on Fire," revealing how to ignite powerful, meaningful, sustainable word-of-mouth movements that are a win-win for both customers and business.
