And community ‘viral marketing’ is the most important principle of why the internet is replacing traditional media.
Contact us for an one-on-one appointment on how to ‘Un-Advertise’!
Do not sink with traditional media. Do the new wave ‘Un-Advertise’!

The best way to ‘advertise’ your services is not through advertising, but by using the power of the community to spread the word about you, and without spending any money on advertising. We call this ‘Un-Advertising

Un-Advertising is about  community ‘viral marketing’ and that is the most powerful principle behind the replacement of traditional media by the internet. ‘Getting other people to promote you’ becomes the more effective, cheaper, smarter and most importantly,  more credible way as other people tooting the horn for you is always 100 times better than you tooting your own!!!

Peter Drucker, the grandfather of business management, had used the analogy, “It is hard to keep a corpse from stinking”.

Old ideas which are no longer working need to be changed. Hanging on to yesteryear’s methods when they were not being effective anymore will kill any business especially in a harsh economic climate.

Do not let your business die with old traditional media. And do not let your business die with old unworkable marketing methods.

Ride the newer wave of ‘Un-Advertising’!

Happy Riding!!

A Tale of Two Men

Monday, May 24th, 2010

Once in a while, we come across stories that are appropriate to not just business success but also appropriate to life. Here is a story which was told to me by a friend:

 

“Two men were stranded in the open sea when their boat was overturned by a huge wave. Both were hanging on to their life vests, there was no help and there was no sign of land nearby.

The first man was frantic and said, “I am going to die! I am going to die!”

The second man said, “Let’s start swimming and maybe we will meet land by accident”

The first man continued his ranting, “But there is no guarantee that we will find land!!”

The second man said, “Even though there is no guarantee of success, at least we have a chance at survival.”

The first man was too scared to move. Hopelessness has consumed him so much that he has already resigned that he could do nothing.

The second man started swimming away. Many grueling hours later, he spotted land and got to safety.

The first man waited for someone to help him and by the time the rescue team went out to find him, he had disappeared.”

 

What is the moral of the story?

Letting Other People Pay for your Marketing

Friday, April 30th, 2010

This point is so incredibly important that ignoring it is fatal.

Look at it this way for a moment:

  • You do not build your own road but use the roads which are already built.
  •  

  • Even if you are a car mechanic, and some real good engineer, you do not build your own car, but you have it built.
  •  

  • When traveling you only put yourself on a bus/train/airplane/ship etc. that has pre-existing routes to your destination, you do not build a new vehicle and create a new route.

So why the dickens would you want to build your own marketing avenues?

Why not put your message on channels and media that are already in existence and which will carry your message for free or at the very least with very, very little money?

Here are a few examples on how to have other people and companies and organizations distribute your message for free or for little.
