Word of Mouth… Still the Best!

So I have been thinking of the best way to get the word out about our company, what is the best and most effective form of marketing? I think if every company mastered this, than it would obviously be successful. So what is the answer? Well, in my humble opinion, word of mouth is still the best form of marketing.
Now, word of mouth, has obviously been around since people could talk. So with all of the new interactive media and technology, how is word of mouth still the best. Technology is constantly changing, but something that isn’t changing is the fact that people talk. So the better question is…. How are you using the newest technology to create word of mouth marketing for your business?
Video on smart-phones and on the web is a powerful way to create word of mouth. I couldn’t help but notice these things about how people get their news these days, it is:
1. Instant
2. Mobile
3. Interactive
4. Dynamic
With that said, video just happens to be all those things as well. So find ways to integrate video into your business to create that word of mouth that is so powerful to any message. Exit Row Productions is constantly looking at new ways to do this for you. Let us know if we can help.

Are Business Cards Dead?

Are Business Cards Dead?

It’s a question we should all think about. It used to be that you would get your business up and running and one of the first things that you would get is some business cards printed. Now, it is an important thing to have your contact information available to those who need it. However, maybe we should think through what they are contacting us for. What is it about our business that will “wow” them once they get a hold of us.
With all of the technologies available to us now it is important to stay focused. Just as common as a business card these days is a website. The same rules apply for your website as a business card. You see, we spend a lot of time chasing the things that, “we are supposed to do.” There is one thing in common behind all successful marketing campaigns…..something worth marketing.
We think because we lay down a business card, build a website, make a video, launch a campaign, or start a twitter account that we will get business. A good idea for every business would be to make sure that once people come to them, there is something to keep them there. A website is only as good as the company, product, or service behind it. The same is true for a business card.
At Exit Row Productions we feel that video is a powerful tool. It can be used in all of the aforementioned forms of marketing, yes, even in business cards. So the answer to the question is ….no. Business cards are not dead. No matter what form of media we use, whether it be print, video, or web, they all adhere to the same principle of only being as good as what’s behind it. So, we can get people to come check out your business, service, or product. Once they are there it is up to you to convince them to stay!
