Abstract: Marketers can fast-track new products or marketing campaigns by targeting early adopters and opinion formers. Building on earlier research and work by Procter & Gamble, this paper tries to identify types of consumers key to successful product launches and likely to stimulate word of mouth marketing. It finds "opinion shapers" typically have 20% more connections than other consumer groups, and identifies their distinct media habits such as favouring consumer issue programmes, U.S. entertainment and fashion shows on television.
