What is Word-of-Mouth Marketing?
Activities that generate
and amplify personal
recommendations for
your library and its
services.

Why Should I Care ?
Traditional marketing is becoming less
effective
Information overload
Skeptical public
“Narrowcasting”
Ubiquitous social media
![Page 13: Marketing.Wom.10.6.09[1]](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070316/5558ad10d8b42aa52a8b45e0/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Potential for the exponential
Message is recorded (somewhere!), no longer ephemeral
Vital for “hard-to-reach” groups
Affordable for libraries!
Technology Pumps It Up!
![Page 14: Marketing.Wom.10.6.09[1]](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070316/5558ad10d8b42aa52a8b45e0/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
It All Begins With One-to-One
One-to-one is: Trusted Timely Tailored

I Thought Viral Was a Bad Thing …?
Word-of-mouth – person to person
Viral- word-of-mouth enhanced by online interactions
Buzz – Everyone is talking about it – message is no longer moving linearly.
![Page 16: Marketing.Wom.10.6.09[1]](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070316/5558ad10d8b42aa52a8b45e0/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Word-of-mouth Is Not Appropriate When:
Product is complicated
Forced, fake, or bought
Product is a dog

Creating Buzz
Let’s give them
something to talk about!
The Wow! factor
Customer care =

Thinking About Social Media
Social media is how people engage, participate, and share online the
experiences they leave behind. It is fundamentally changing the way we
communicate.

Questions to consider:
How does social media fit with goals of organization?
Who are the current customers? Who are the potential customers? What has worked and not worked in the
past? The players – who does what?
