According to MarketingSherpa, viral marketing is getting hotter all the time – but those who are new to viral marketing are less likely to conduct a viral campaign in 2007 than their more experienced competitors. MarketingSherpa states, “There’s a chasm in viral marketing — an experience chasm. It gives anyone with viral experience a significant edge over the competition.”
They report that experienced viral marketers are more likely to:
- “Pick the right goal — 13% of newbies hope to make direct sales from a viral campaign. Experienced marketers use viral as step one in a relationship or brand-building campaign that ultimately leads to a sale.”
- “Use multiple tactics — experienced marketers are more likely to pour it on, using video, audio, microsites, games and email. Newbies may test one tactic.”
- “Budget realistically — the numbers that newbies gave for videos, ecards and microsites were often laughably smaller than those from experienced marketers.”
