What I learned . . .

I really enjoy this class. I learned how much typical marketing has changed within the past decade due to digital media, Facebook, YouTube, Twitter, etc.  It’s been eye opening for me because I didn’t realize the many opportunities out there to market successful by utilize cheap readily available tools to expand that word of mouth marketing if maintained and played out right.  I really enjoyed the Word of Mouth Marketing book by Andy Sernovitz – the process he lays out in the book make marketing sound so optimistic and fun with the 5 T’s.  I think the key takeaways for me is “Be that purple cow” and catch the right peoples’ (Talkers’/Trust Agents’) attention and get them to like you/product/service so they tell other people about it and the domino effect plays out and everybody is loving your business.  Overall, the class has been very enjoyable and enlightening.  Wish I had more time to get more involved in it.  Thanks!
