By Patrick Carone

  • Your customers like to laugh as much as you do. Everyone faces an onslaught of social media, email and marketing messages both on- and off line. Adding a touch of humor will help to capture your target's attention.
  • Laughter is a reaction, and reactions are engagement. Engagement lifts the awareness of a brand and typically gets it talked about and remembered.
  • Humor is the best way to go viral. What makes a video go viral are often the stupid, obnoxious, extreme, crazy, stunt-laden and hilarious things about it.
