Guerrilla marketing puts your message right in touch with the consumers of your product or service.

What does guerrilla marketing even mean? It sounds like the words gorilla and marketing combined which almost makes no sense. In fact, it makes no sense. But let us dig deeper into this so that we can understand specifically and particularly what that type of marketing is. Because no doubt you’ve heard of this term numerous times.

Lack of financial resources is the main problem for most new businesses. Most of the funds you acquire go into setting up the business. And so when the time comes to market your products, you don’t have enough resources. But the question here is, how much exactly is enough?

Well, that depends on what methods you employ for marketing. If you go by the traditional methods, you’ll often find your pockets empty. Instead, employing Guerrilla marketing tactics can make the most of your resources. It is nothing else than a smarter way of employing marketing.

What is Guerrilla Marketing?

In the simplest of words, it is a low-cost, focused, and irregular advertising method. It helps to effectively promote your product using unpaid or inexpensive means. It is an unconventional approach to marketing. A marketing strategy that will maximize your goals while utilizing minimal resources.

Guerrilla marketing puts your message right in touch with the consumers of your product or service. Instead of capital expenditure (large advertising spend), the strategy focus on creatively investing time and money into marketing. And in turn, it quickly promotes your product for little or no money.

How to use Guerrilla Marketing?

Guerrilla marketing just asks one thing from you – your imagination! To make it effective, you need to think out of the box. You need and want to be creative and promote your business at each and every occasion.

Get to the streets

Yes, literally, get on the streets. Guerrilla marketing is not about those big expensive social media campaigns or TV advertisements. No, It is all about doing those small little things in a creative way.

It doesn’t matter which city you’re in, there will always be that one street that will be full of people. And that’s what you need, right? All those people getting to know about your product all at once. But the question is, why would they do that?

And that’s where your creativity comes into the picture. If you can make the always-busy people spare a glance, the job is done. People may forget the advertisement they watch every day on their television, but they’ll never forget a Guerrilla running in the streets.

Small things, big goals

Do you own a painting company? How about organizing a painting competition then? Get the people to paint with your colors? Or do you manufacture cameras? Why not take a tour on a photography expedition then? Give people a hands-on experience with your product. Sounds nice, right? That’s Guerrilla marketing for you.

Remember, opportunities are everywhere. All you need to do is grab it. Keep your eyes and ears open to all those small little things happening around you. A moment will come where you can market your product. And that’s what you have to latch on to. Doing small little things for the community will help you to achieve your big goals.

Employ guerrilla marketing with social media

Social media is the most important piece in this puzzle called marketing. It is one of those platforms where you can promote your product free of cost and it offers a distribution network that is unrivalled.

When marketing with social media, the prime investment is time. If you give your precious time to it, social media will give you the required results.

But don’t just blindly follow the crowd there. Be smart, be innovative. Host contests, generate polls, start a rewards scheme. Do anything and everything to stand out from the crowd.

Social media is a big jungle where the sheep get lost easily And I encounter a lot of businesses who have no idea what they’re doing. They’re limited knowledge of what the social media platforms are capable of retards their growth.

And nowadays, no one wastes time to find the lost ones. So if you want to stand out in the jungle, there is just one way to do it. You have to be a Guerilla.
