(Source: MTV.CO.UK) Are they fans or are they mini cults?
Consider the impact a strong, cult-like, following can have on the fans and followers of the mega celebrities. While these people are entertainers a North Carolina business coach and consultant, Jay Simcic, believes the same type of mass following and cult like strategies can be used to help improve local business revenue and profits during any economy.
Simcic says, "If business owners do things that include and engage their customers... their "audience"... they stand to gain a huge following in their industry. It may not be as massive as the top celebrities in the nation but for local businesses it could mean the difference between drowning in failure and being king of the hill."
Simcic believes the ability for entertainers to get their fans to act is the key component to success. He says, "When business owners engage their customers and prospects they should train them a certain way. That's because they can later use that authority and cult-like following to get their followers to act. The key is engaging their prospects and customers regularly and consistently."

The idea that Simcic seems to stress is that some action must be taken on a regular occurrence. He believes that most business owners get caught up in the day to day and forget to look outside to other industries for ideas on how to grow and prosper.
