can you guys help me with some tips on how to plan a viral marketing strategy?

Many thanks in advance.

Are you serious, you are charging clients for a service and you are going to ask on a forum how to perform that very service?

I would do some homework before you offer your services to others, this is not a very professional way to run a business.

I cannot post links yet on the forum, so I would just go to Google and search "viral marketing tips" and you will find many resources that will help point you in the right direction.

Viral Marketing Tips

1. Do Something Controversial
2. Make Videos On Many Video Networks
3. Have Free Downloads
4. Be Interesting
5. Talk About Something Big In The News Today
6. Share On Many Social Sites
7. Promote Sharing Of Your Material
8. Make Sharing Easy
9. Add Value To Your Content
10. Wash and Repeat

Hope this helps,

Nick

Create a video on Youtube and other such websites regarding your clients products. Send email giving info on your client company to at least as many ids that you can lay your hands on.

Viral marketing is a very powerful marketing strategy. Viral marketing means when your consumer starts promoting a product or service. Creating viral content is not so easy. You may need to create a valuable video, eBook or something really unique or funny.
