Word of Mouth is Quickly Gaining Industry Recognition
A New Way to Measure Word-of Mouth Marketing
April 2010
“The rewards of pursuing excellence in WOM are huge and it can deliver
a sustainable and significant competitive edge few other
marketing approaches can match. With so few companies actively
managing Word of Mouth - the most powerful form of marketing - the
potential upside is exponentially great.”

Why We Are Here
*or whoever is your specifically-identified target consumer
•Brands want this mom* to put their products into her cart, and to do so on an ongoing basis

What We Know
•And all other social/technological innovations (i.e. Twitter, FourSquare, Mobile, etc.)
•The rise of social media* and the decline of traditional advertising have made it more competitive and more confusing than ever before to find the right ways to convince (and keep convincing) this mom, and most consumers, to choose your brand

Recommendations Play The Single Most Pivotal Role in Driving Purchase in the Food Category
Recommendations are the #1 Driver
of which new meals/dishes
consumers buy –and are nearly
three times more impactful than traditional paid advertisements.

Become recommended.
It’s not enough to
just be persuaded
(ADS)
It’s not enough to
just be covered
(PUBLIC RELATIONS)
It’s not enough to just drive
buzz
(SOCIAL MEDIA)
It’s not enough to
just be engaged
(INTERACTIVE/EXPERIENTIAL)
It’s not enough to
just be received
(DIRECT)

• Situation Overview– VCA, operator of over 500
veterinary hospitals across the U.S., sought to launch an integrated marketing campaign to tout the impressiveness of its latest technology
• What we learned by listening– VCA customers didn’t care about technology. Instead, we uncovered
that the #1 driver of positive or negative recommendation was the “friendliness” of the VCA staff
• Solution– VCA repositioned its approach to foster trust in its technology by simply
driving awareness of its friendly, thoughtful, attentive and caring staff

• Two blogs entries were posted within 72 hours of one another by the same author on the blog c2photo.blogspot.com
• Customer was having major issues with service and could not get resolution through customer service in-store or on the phone
“Avoid Cricket Wireless like the plague!”
“Do yourself a favor and avoid the drama. Avoid Cricket Wireless like the Black Death”
“I am amazed that a company spending millions
of dollars to build a brand has no mechanism to
regulate and protect the brand from the actions
of the franchisee”

• Through WOMMA’s “Living Ethics” project and in anticipation of the FTC Guide update, changes to their Ethics Code re: compensation and transparent disclosure were announced in 2009
