Despite my frustrations about how Apple announced the iPhone or how they mishandled iPod Mondays, I do love the brand. I love what it stands for and, in general, how they communicate.
Inc.com did a very nice little slide show, How to Generate Buzz like Apple. Unfortunately, they don’t give me any way to add the code so you can watch it here…or a URL I can share.
So, I did the next best thing. The screen shots are worth the scroll. I promise. Don’t just read the headlines…some marketing greats are quoted in the body copy as well.
Kudos to creators Leslie Taylor and Erika Schneider. If anyone finds a better way to show this (I checked to see if it was on YouTube) let me know and I’ll update!
That’s a nice, innovative way to share your tips.
No offense, Drew, but I refuse to read anything about how to create buzz that doesn’t offer a better way of passing it along. 🙂
Dawud,
I thought the content was very good. I was disappointed, as I pointed out, that they didn’t make it more shareable.
Nice to see you at the blog — hope you’ll keep adding to the conversation!

Paul,
No offense taken. I’m just the messenger. I agree with you that its insane that they didn’t more viral.
But that doesn’t take away the value of the content itself.

I’m a huge Apple fan, too, which is why I loved this:

Great marketing lesson, here.
Ann,
Love it! This should be mandatory viewing for all marketing students.
And…it should be shown to them again after they’ve been on the job for a few years just to wear down the jaded veneer that will have built up by then!
