What is Guerrilla Marketing?Guerrilla marketing is a body of unconventional

ethical ways of pursuing conventional goals

Guerrilla marketing is a proven method of achieving profits with minimum outlay

Guerrilla marketing can be as different from conventional marketing as guerrilla warfare is from

conventional warfare

Guerrilla marketing is about matching the wits of your competitors, rather than their budgets.


Why is there a need for Guerrilla Marketing?

Small business failures are reaching record numbers and one of the main reasons for the failures is a failure to understand marketing

Guerrilla marketing has been proven in action to work for small businesses around the world. It

works because it's simple to understand, easy to implement and outrageously inexpensive.


Why is there a need for Guerrilla Marketing?

It Provides:

certainty in an uncertain world,

economy in a high-priced world,

simplicity in a complicated world, and

marketing awareness in a clueless world.


What is a Guerrilla Entrepreneur?

Guerrilla entrepreneurs know that the journey is the goal. They also realise

that they are in control of the enterprise, not the other way around, and that if they are dissatisfied with the journey, that they are missing the point of the

journey itself.


The guerrilla entrepreneur always operates according to a plan, They know who they

are, where they are going, and how they will get there. they are prepared, know that

anything can and will happen, and can deal with the barriers to success because their plan has foreseen them and shown exactly

how to surmount them.



The guerrilla entrepreneur is flexible. He or she is guided by a strategy but knows the difference

between a guide and a master. When it is necessary for change, the guerrilla changes,

accepting change as part of the status quo, not ignoring or battling it. He or she adapts to new

situations, realises that service is whatever their customers want it to be, and knows that inflexible

things become brittle and break.

appetite for new information.

10 Reality Checks!

1. The state of the economy must always be considered, for it dictates which marketing tactics will work best. In a difficult economy, guerrillas adjust their marketing by speaking more to customers than prospects and by working like demons to gain referral and follow-up business.

2. The competitive scene is part of reality because competitors have more information than ever before, and they use it to add fuel to their marketing. You just can’t ignore competitors who are out to win the hearts and minds of your customers.


3. The latest technology is reality because it enables guerrillas to produce more marketing tools, to expose their message to more people, and to reduce their marketing costs as they become increasingly involved with desktop publishing, the Internet, speedy communications and affordable new media.

4. The news of the day has a major impact on reality. Your prospects keep up with the news and they react accordingly. Unless you do the same, expect the worst.

10 Reality Checks!


5. Reality also includes your marketing budget because you must live within it and make it stretch to its fullest extent. Now, more than ever, that budget enables guerrillas to market actively but not expensively.

6. Reality is the inevitable clutter of other marketing, the blizzard of direct mail each day, the increasing sophistication of marketing techniques that your clients and prospects receive.

10 Reality Checks!


7. Reality is knowing that your prospects have things on their mind other than your marketing and as to why they should buy what you’re selling. Guerrillas adapt their marketing to that reality by facing it squarely.

8. Reality is knowing the difference between a motivating marketing message and a clever marketing message. Many marketers haven’t a clue as to the difference and often mistake the two.

10 Reality Checks!

Do You Know the Difference?


9. Alas, reality is also a ho-hum attitude on the public’s mind when it comes to marketing. They have many things to consider each day and you can be pretty certain that marketing is not one of them.

10. Finally, reality is knowing the value of commitment to your plan. Reality is seeing clearly that marketing is not an event, but a process. It’s a process that takes time. If you’re not willing to invest that time, along with your money and your energy, you’re living in an unreal world. Guerrillas strive to live in the same world as their prospects and customers.
