5 ways to implement word-of-mouth marketing in a simple way
1.- Exceed the expectations of your clients.
Word of mouth marketing is generated when we surprise the customer. Remember that it's not so much what you give away or what promotions you run, but rather how you treat and communicate.
2.- Play with the surprise factor
Brands not only have to satisfy the customer with the product or service, they have to surprise. How can they achieve this? By transforming a satisfying experience into a special experience. For example, if a hotel guest contracts the breakfast service, they can send them a handwritten note thanking them for their trust from the reception desk, thus generating the wow factor.
3.- Allow your customers to leave comments
When you want to start a word-of-mouth marketing campaign, the worst thing you can do is to make it difficult for customers to leave reviews about your company. You should make it easy for customers to leave comments and ratings about your brand. Make sure you allow on your Facebook (+) and others social networks (+) leave comments.
4.- Set measurable goals
Like any other marketing strategy, goals such as "get everyone talking about my brand" are too generic to be effective. Marketing plans need to set goals that are measurable. Each goal should have time and budget limits for its realisation.
5.- Promote your business through social networks.
Public relations is a very effective way to keep your brand in the public eye. An SME should foster relationships with local media, newspapers, and radio stations. In addition, social media are tools that will allow you to reach a large part of your audience (and for free).
