Nothing beats word-of-mouth advertising from your customers! We love word-of-mouth as much as you, and we second every small business tip that has ever been written about the importance of creating word-of-mouth circles for your small business.
As a small business owner, the biggest favor you can do for your business is to spend time generating word-of-mouth advertising and cultivating customer buzz around your business.
This free testimony is more effective than any paid advertising method available.
There are a number of ways that your business can generate positive word-of-mouth from your existing customers:
- Go above and beyond to serve them.
- Don’t leave it to your employees. Treat the customers well yourself.
- Don’t overpromise in ads. Invest in ads to attract customers, but create a positive customer experience to retain them in the long-term.
- See feedback as a way to better your service and make someone happy.
- Involve your customers more by engaging with them on social media.
- Encourage contests and competitions so your customers can “win” something.
It is important to start converting your customers into fans to generate positive word-of-mouth about your business.
Remember that no small business marketing plan is more effective than a good word-of-mouth strategy.
