11. Viral marketing game Viral marketing works where the message is passed on from person to person. Many viral marketing means use web based games. CCMS has developed one around a careers fair. Students pick a character. The aim is to collect as many points at the careers fair before you are caught by the porter! It is available in two forms –A game that can simply be embedded in your website (to attract students) –Or a version that allows students to email their score and a link to the site to a friend. Further details and installation instructions are on the Google Group
