by Dave Balter, founder of Bzzagent, the most effective WOM product campaigns on the Net.
How to generate effective word of mouth campaigns for your product...
As the author points out, "...word of mouth, pure as the driven snow, makes all those clever little marketing tricks look irrelevant. Pricing and promotions? Endcaps and shelf talkers? Pop ups and scavenger hunts? With pure word of mouth driving sales, you could hide the product on the bottom shelves at a second-tier department store, price it triple what it's worth, and it would still vanish. Pure word of mouth is what enables products to create an entire category, produce an evolution in the way we think, dress, or act, and even define a generation.

I never heard exactly who it was that found Sara Heinemann’s dead body over at the lagoon. But it was Willie O’Hara who told us that she was lying neatly on the grass between those rotting red rowboats you could rent for a dollar if you wanted to do a little fi shing. Sara’s pink undies were wrapped around her neck like a bow and she was naked. And some of her blond hair had been cut off just like Junie Piaskowski’s had the summer before. Something like that wasn’t supposed to happen on Vliet Street. But like Daddy always said . . . things can happen when you least expect them. Things that can change your whole life. How right he was. Because after they found Sara’s body, it seemed like our nightly games of red light, green light and the Fourth of July parade and even cooling off in the Honey Creek on days so hot they’d curl the hair on the back of your neck might become part of the good old days that Granny always talked about. Because one dead girl was one thing. But two dead girls . . . everybody started wondering who would be next. Except for me. I knew I was next. It was the summer of 1959. The summer I was ten. That summer on Vliet Street everyone started locking their doors.
