Why we need word of mouth marketing?




How is Tell-a-Friend different?

We think our Tell-a-Friend widget might be the best word-of-mouth marketing tool in existence. Tell-a-Friend makes it possible for your site visitors to share your content with their friends without directing them away from your site. Tell-a-Friend synchs with their IM, email in the context of the content they're sharing without those tedious pop-up forms that require manual input.

We know you've been told all your life that you don't get something for nothing. While that's normally true, Tell-a-Friend widget is completely free with no strings attached.

Where can I use it?

The Tell-a-Friend widget works just about any place online:
