Simple Steps For Word Of Mouth
Can You Have More Sales, Too?
Helping over 75,000 businesses like yours raise profits and build customer relationships using AWeber's opt-in email marketing software for over 10 years.
Holly Suttmann, a former schoolteacher, started the Black & Light Candle company. Holly really understands word of mouth. She’s proof that every business can master these inexpensive techniques.
Lessons from Holly:
- Cultivate key talkers. She’s sent me two personal notes and really built a relationship with me.
- Use samples. People can’t talk about a product they haven’t seen.
- Make it easy to spread the word. Holly sent me a stack of postcards to forward to friends.
- Make your talkers look good. She gave me a discount code to share.
- Add remarkable features. Sometimes you need a reason to talk that is more than the product itself.
- Create a fantastic product.
The lesson: High-touch, high-quality word of mouth is effective and inexpensive. Are you spending more on cold sales letters and glossy flyers than it would take to get real word of mouth?
