The question is what value the transmitter of the virus is really providing to his/her circle. Is the service valuable enough to warrant virality? As a recipient of the virus, how much does it take for me to engage? (Interesting questions for VCs to ask entrepreneurs.)

I have signed up for multiple tools through friends' recommendation on Facebook that turned out to be fairly useless. The good news is that it was easy to test and quickly discard an FB tool or service.

The challenge for most marketers will clearly answering why should I install, use and commit to something new. If you provide real "Blink I Get It" value like Xobni that may not be an issue. But what about the other 90% of businesses out there that take a bit more explaining?]]> Comment on More Freemium and Startup Marketing Thoughts tag:startup-marketing.com,2008-06-20:1133848 email marketing http://www.creativeworld.in 2008-06-20T02:55:52Z 2008-06-20T02:55:52Z
