I could tell you why I think you would be crazy to not grab The Word Of Mouth Manual – Volume II for free right now, but here’s how the Blog explains the book:

"So, you want to know everything there possibly is to know about word of mouth? Then you’ve grabbed the right book (or, you know, downloaded the right PDF) — CEO and founder of BzzAgent Dave ‘Chief Bzz’ Balter’s The Word of Mouth Manual: Volume II.

Around the Central Hive, we like to think of it as the definitive guide to all things WOM (and, no, Dave doesn’t make us say that). It’s actually a perfect go-to for Agents to discover the guidelines of great Bzz, a must-read for marketers looking to adapt and evolve and probably the only time you’ll learn about leeches, Ace of Base and Tickle Me Elmo between the covers of one book. Yeah, it’s pretty comprehensive.

The Word of Mouth Manual: Volume II is split into three enlightening, funny sections, all working together to prove that WOM is one of the most powerful marketing mediums on the planet. Check them out:

Part I: What You Should Know (in Theory) takes a look at what’s new with word of mouth

Part II: What You Probably Know Already (Unless You Don’t) answers the questions, doubts and criticisms from organized word of mouth’s early formation

Part III: What You Must Know (in Practice) discusses the necessities of practicing this communications phenomenon

Dave’s book is full of facts, stories and insights about word of mouth and the industry that’s been built around it. His insider’s look helps show that while WOM may be a medium that can’t be forced, fabricated or created, it certainly can be managed, understood and enjoyed by all!"
