Viral market, A market that grows by itself!

A marketer's dream, reality or fiction?

The viral factor online in my opinion more reality than fiction but so difficult to do that it actually happening is a dream come true.

The Internet is full of stories... The guy that sold advertising by the pixel to put himself through college, very comfortably by all accounts; that project went viral around the globe and on T. v Radio and the Internet. 

Then there's the story of the man who started with a safety pin and kept trading up till he had a house.

The people with the original Idea achieved their aims due to the viral factor, buying a pixel generated interest for the buyer and the seller and the more pixels you bought the higher the value of the story to local and world press: a win win situation.

The same for the pin man the closer he got to his goal the more attention there was for both parties! A "good deal for all concerned"

A quick point here! Replications and spin off's generate limited appeal for a short time as the lack the spark of the original!

They are two of the A Listers... Fortunately for us viral marketing comes in many shapes and sizes.

Locally word of mouth is the best form of viral advertising. People discussing t great film they watched at the local cinema or the fantastic meal they had in that new restaurant.

Good public opinion is vital at any level, the impact word of mouth has on your results is never to underestimated. So good customer care is paramount.

Video is today's buzz word in viral marketing, who hasn't seen chocolate rain or the musician's on the exercise machines or the man who dances in far flung locations around the world.

These videos are picked up and incorporated into the marketing of corporations and popular music bands with a nod to the originators and a cheque!

Video is a very effective way to create a viral campaign in 2009 and beyond.

Information is a great viral givaway: content relevant to your market that will be passed from person to person-perhaps in the form of a link to a n online document, a P.D.F or E book.

Staying with the online theme software is a winner, computer software can solve a problem your target audience may have.

Good software often simplifies a process to save your markets time, or perhaps allow's them to achieve a goal that was outside their skill set previously.

Good luck with your marketing and I hope this article has helped you focus on the best way to achieve your goals.

Remember people like video now so if you can incorporate video into your marketing campaigns war chest!
