WORD-OF-MOUTH MARKETING THAT GOES BEYOND TACTICS - A FISKARS Case Study
Word-of-mouth marketing is the flavor of the month right now. Viral marketing, online videos, social networks, blogs, and buzz events are all just new tactics in our expanding marketing toolbox. To create something truly impactful, valuable, and sustainable we, as marketers must take that bold next step of truly releasing control. We must hand the reins to our most-passionate customers.
Chad Vincent, president of Fiskars Brands and Spike Jones of Brains on Fire will lay out the blueprint for the creation of the “Fiskateers,” Fiskars’ crafting ambassador program. This best practice case study not only connected the company with its customers, it increased loyalty, online conversations, and sales - and that was only the beginning. Fiskateers is no longer a marketing program; it is a movement.
Speakers:
Chad Vincent, President - Fiskars Brands
Spike Jones, Brains on Fire
