A New Era in Marketing

In the past century, we've seen numerous successful marketing and distribution trends. We've seen Direct Sales in the 20's-30's, Franchising emergence in the late 40's, Multi-Level & Network Marketing evolved from the direct sellers in the 50's, catalogs in the 60's & Direct Mail in the 70's, and the first technological movement in direct marketing found its way in the marketplace in the 80's with Infomercials (direct response T.V.).

The Internet dramatically changed the course of history in the 90's and gave birth to a new trend called One-to-One Marketing and Mass Customization. Although, Mass Customization was thought to be short-lived, it is still in its infancy and will be less of a means of marketing and more like the distribution trend of the next century. People want what they want, how they want it, and will pay top-dollar for their unique product.

However, the most successful marketing method has been around since the dawn of commerce...word of mouth, or referral marketing. People want to do business with people/companies they know, like, and trust!

Well, the new era in marketing is here: finally technology and traditional marketing means meet. The fastest growing trends are Social Media and Mobile Commerce (M-Commerce)in this decade. These trends can take the word of mouth/referral marketing to a new level by exposing a brand, product, or company to BILLIONS of people in less than a second by virtue of ever-increasing technology.
