10. Establishing your goals and strategy.
One of the most important aspects of creating a
viral video is how you go about developing it
Many people head straight for the funny ideas and
neat tricks without keeping in mind the goal they
are trying to achieve
Once you have established your goals, you can
then build a strategy that focuses on them
Aligning the creative element with the goals and
strategy is key

13. Tracking the results.
Tracking your results is an important step in understanding
how well you have achieved your goals
Receiving accurate information in a timely manner also will allow you to
make adjustments to optimize your return
If reported inaccurately or not at all, less than desirable results and unmet
expectations are much more likely to occur
