33. “After accruing the initial 120 participants and an
additional 144 engaged influencers, the word of mouth
power kicked in, as those individuals, proud to have
“earned” such special treatment, generated more than
4,600 tweets about the new route. This, in turn, led to
more than 7.4 million impressions and coverage in
top blogs and news outlets like the L.A. Times and
CNN Money. And all it took was making those
original 120 participants feel special.”
