MY REVIEW

 

I read this book as part of a campaign for bzzagent.com, a word of mouth marketing company. I am a volunteer bzzagent. This book not only really explains word of mouth marketing, but also clarifies the difference between word of mouth and viral marketing. Dave Balter is also rather funny and kept me chuckling throughout the entire book. A quick read, but lots of good information. Did I mention it is kind of funny? You can buy this book or download it as a PDF. Check out bzzagent.com Bzzagents are not paid, but are offered the opportunity to try new products and spread honest word of mouth about them.
