Key Insight: The conversation is happening whether we like it or not, so we must be a part of it and control our messages, turn negatives into positives and ultimately bring our brands to life in our intended audiences’ world. All with the goal of creating brand ambassadors who will do our marketing for us…by sharing our content and talking about it with friends and family. Think of it as nimble word-of-mouth marketing that you get to persuade at the actual user level. #priceless
