Inbound marketing

“Any marketing tactic that relies on earning people’s interest instead of buying it.” — Wikipedia

“Instead of driving their message into a crowd over and over again like a sledgehammer, they attract highly qualified customers to their business like a magnet.”

Viral marketing

“A method of product promotion that relies on getting customers to market an idea, product, or service on their own by telling their friends about it, usually by e-mail.”

— Oxford English Dictionary

From Code to Product Lecture 9 — Marketing — Slide 32 gidgreen.com/course

the activity of people who registered last month]

Redefining viral marketing

“Any method of product promotion which has a viral coefficient > 1.0 •  For a user action of genuine value •  Measured for a time period which is short

enough for the company to survive •  Sustainable for long enough for the

company to reach much of its market.” — Me

The opposite of viral

•  Requires many users to work – But no motivation for early sharing

•  Think smaller – Start within niche – Fake early users – Spread from there

•  Or: value for first user – del.icio.us
