The leaving of a message is one half of a social construct, which is completed by the checking of the message. If that contract breaks down, then all social contracts break down, and we descend into anarchy." a quote from the The Big Bang Theoryseries on CBS TV, US "There are tens of thousands of businesses making millions a year in profits that still haven't ever heard of twitter, blogs or facebook. Are they all wrong? Have they missed out or is the joke really on us? They do business through personal relationships, by delivering great customer service and it is working for them." Howard Mann, Author of Your Business Brickyard "The One Precenters, a small percentage of the tribe, within the larger tribe, are those who spread the word.

The One Precenters are often hidden in the crevices of niches, yet they are the roots of word of mouth. This year, your job is to find them and attract them." Jackie Huba and Ben McConnell, authors, Citizen Marketers and Creating Customer Evangelists |
