Instead of spending money, spend energy, imagination and time



During  making some of my assignments  I saw that many companies spend enormous amounts of money  when it comes to marketing because, indeed,  it counts a lot for the well being of companies. So in that moment I was thinking : well, if in the near future I will set up my own business, which is the cheapest and interesting  way for adding value to my idea, to my company . Small businesses cannot spend so much money in marketing campaigns.
After I took a look, I found the answer: Guerrilla marketing and street marketing ( which is actually a subset of guerrilla marketing ):. Like guerrilla marketing, street marketing has the characteristic of being non conventional. However, it is limited to the streets or public places. Other forms of guerrilla marketing use other media and processes, such as the Internet, to establish communication with the customers. Some other examples of guerrilla marketing are  viral marketing and experiential marketing . I think that is the simplest way of offering to the people what they want the most and they can hardly reach. Nowadays, not  only small companies take advantage of it (as it was at the origins ), but also well known brands.If you want ro read more about it, I recommend for reading ‚’’Guerrila marketing’’ written by Jay Conrad Levinson.
For being inspired , take a look at  the video ,40 ideas of guerrila marketing.
