In today’s blog, I cover why Word of Mouth Advertising is the most powerful form of advertising your business can ever do. The Return on Investment with Word of Mouth Advertising is higher than any other form of advertising you implement.

 Why is it so powerful and why does it work so well?  Easy… it’s called Raving Fans.  Raving Fans not only purchase from your business on a regular interval, they also are the ones telling people to do business with you.

You are probably thinking to yourself how much money you are going to save this year in advertising.  Not so fast.  LESS THAN FOUR PERCENT of your client base turn into raving fans.  (Let me say that again: LESS than FOUR PERCENT!!!!)  This means that 96% of your business comes from your customers and clients.  How do they find you?  Through traditional advertising.  

Most businesses use Word of Mouth as a cop-out because they either do not understand their Target Market or have not developed their Unique Selling Proposition.  Do not put your organization in that predicament.  Understand how to harness ALL forms of advertising and grow your business.  Traditional advertising works.  If yours is not working, then make changes today and start making it work for you.

Bottom line:  While Word of Mouth Advertising is the most effective form of advertising for your business, it is simply a spoke in a wheel.  For a wheel to roll properly, their must be multiple spokes.  Understand your target market and use different advertising mediums to reach them.  Word of Mouth Advertising is simply not enough to sustain your business. DO NOT MAKE THE MISTAKE THAT WORD OF MOUTH ADVERTISING IS THE ONLY ADVERTISING YOUR BUSINESS NEEDS!
