Word of Mouth Marketing
Word of Mouth marketing was essentially the first form of marketing. Before print, writing, television, radio, and other forms of modern technology the only way we were able to spread messages and knowledge was orally. This was more effective, descriptive, and elaborate than carving things into stone. People used oral traditions to pass on their messages, history, thoughts, and beliefs to each other and future generations. This is why we as humans have evolved to become great story tellers. It is in our human nature to tell each other stories and communicate with each other orally. We have since come a long way from the times when people would travel great distances to relay messages to neighboring towns, villages, and countries. Now with technology, we don’t have to worry about the old adage of “don’t kill the messenger.”

Stealth Marketing
Stealth Marketing, also known as undercover marketing, is an aspect of marketing in which an audience is not aware that they are being marketed to. It is marketing incognito. To use a parallel, if the marketing industry were for example, the military, the stealth marketers would be the covert ops, secret agents, spies, and ninjas. Stealth marketing tactics are meant to market to one's subconscious. The objective would be to make someone feel that they need or want something, without actually going out and saying buy this, our product is great, or check this out. Stealth marketing uses intricacies and subtleties to lightly hammer a message into your mind. Those who have used it thus far have reaped massive benefits.
