Don’t let your orders go out the door without including something valuable customers can share with a friend. We’re not talking about ads or brand slogans, we’re talking about something that makes the talker feel smart or generous.
Classic examples include special discounts, passes to exclusive events, or behind-the-scenes stuff. It doesn’t have to be expensive or complicated — just something outsiders can’t get anywhere else.
How a word of mouth marketing supergenius does it:
Rue La La — a members-only apparel retailer — includes a few printed community invites with each order. The cards read: “You’re my friend. So I’m sharing the love.”
New fans are then able to join the Rue La La community by logging on and entering their friend’s email address.
