The Best and Worst of Viral Marketing Campaigns Are Named by Tomer Garzberg in Business Review Australia

San Diego, CA, May 11, 2011 --(PR.com)-- In the May issue of Business Review Australia, Strongman Digital Marketing Director Tomer Garzberg names the best, the worst and the downright ugly in viral marketing campaigns.

Companies like Burger King and Blendtec have struck Viral Marketing gold, while others such as Sony and GM haven’t fared as well, Garzberg finds. He also finds that the “Queensland Tourism: Best Job in the World” was one of the best. “An incredible campaign that included the posting of job ads all over the world, for someone to win a role at a job on the Great Barrier Reef. Over $70 million in publicity was generated,” Garzberg says in the article.

Meanwhile, GM was an epic fail. Garzberg says, “Although most of the shreds of evidence are long gone, some websites have preserved the best of GM’s campaign backfire. GM wanted people to create their own ads of the company’s (then) new car, the Chevy Tahoe. What resulted is a collection of pro-environmental ads, which were naturally anti-SUV.”
