Honest Word of Mouth, or Sleazy Stealth?

Marketing No Comments »

Hey thanks for popping to check out my blog and be sure to subscribe to my RSS feed. Thanks for visiting!


I found a good article by Andy Sernovitz, CEO of WOMMA (the Word of Mouth Marketing Association) over at iMedia Connection which talks about the differences between “honest word of mouth marketing and sleazy stealth campaigns”.

It’s aimed more at the traditional offline and corporate mega-product world, but applies equally to online marketing practices. It’s very instructive reading and I’m glad I found it:

Word of Mouth Tactics: Honest Marketing

They also have a Practical Ethics Toolkit available.

Especially interesting is the Ethical Blogger Contact Guidelines: 10 Principles for Ethical Contact by Marketers

Would love to hear any thoughts about this one . . .
