Key Points

The new marketing challenge is getting into the conversation
set, not just the consideration set
The WOM channel is of global relevance and Social, Category,
and Brand Influentials are three important points of entry
Successful enterprises take a more integrated approach to
WOM marketing

Some Observations
8
People talk about and have different levels of interest in
different categories
Being in the consideration set doesn’t put you in the
conversation set
Brand advocates have a mindset that disposes them to
“persuade” and “convert”
