A brand advocate is a customer who enjoys buying a product or service and then telling his friends, family, and coworkers about it. They do this because of Customer Loyalty. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The person who is a fan of a product or service naturally promotes it because he loves the product and companies do not pay a single penny for this. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hence, this technique provides companies new opportunities to grow in their respective field. Though, it depends on the lines of \u2018Word of Mouth\u2019, but it is still very much in practice. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
