Most small businesses will tell you their new customers come through word of mouth, but very few can tell you how those referrals happen or where they come from. But, it’s not magic and it’s not an accident. Great word of mouth is the result of a planned, well-executed strategy focused on earning raving fans and helping them talk about you. The good news: It’s easy (and a whole lot of fun) to get started. Here’s how to do it:
