MAIN IDEA
There’s just so much background noise and clutter now that traditional advertising isn’t as effective as it once was. In 2004 alone, American companies spent over $235 billion on marketing – more than the entire GDP of Mexico. To add to the problem, technology now makes it easy for consumers to zap commercials and block intrusive ads. It isn’t feasible to market the traditional way anymore.
Instead, you can generate better results using media attention and word-of-mouth endorsements. Buzzmarketing is all about capturing the attention of consumers and the media by making your brand or your company entertaining, fascinating or newsworthy. If you can get people talking about your company and your products amongst themselves, you’ll also get far more bang for your advertising dollars – typically about three- to five-times more.
In short, buzzmarketing is all about starting conversations between customers. It differs from traditional marketing in this way:
