No trigger, no advocacy

Another study proves the obvious: real world WOM rules

A new Keller Fay study has just corroborated one of the most obvious insights in WOM: the majority of word of mouth still happens offline.

Dig into gaming to drive word of mouth

We all know what a force social gaming has become.
