Great but a little long in the tooth ... Great information but a little dated. The book was written in 1994(?) so some of the presentation is ... meh. But there are still some great concepts and information to be had. Still worth the price, but it would be great to see a new version.
A great foundation for Guerrilla Marketing A great foundation for Guerrilla Marketing. A very easy read. Very good from a market share and a tactical standpoint. Give a boost to your marketing plan. I highly recommend all of Seth Godin's books.Good information on targeted media. this is NOT true guerilla marketing The authors' use of the term "guerilla marketing" is completely inaccurate. This book is about TRADITIONAL media -- guerilla marketing is the complete opposite. It was also written in 1994, before the advent of the commercialized Internet, so it's a very very very old school approach to advertising. It has some good information about traditional advertising for small businesses, but most of the reference information is way out of date. If you're looking for subversive, alternative approaches to marketing, read "Under The Radar" by Bond & Kirshenbaum instead. Timeless tactics for small businesses The beauty of this book is that most of the tactics inside it are as relevant and useful today as they were 20 years ago. I first got this book when my professor (a highly succesful multi-millionaire) recommended it to me. He said it was as good as any Marketing degree. Well I have my Marketing degree and would have to agree with him. The best promotional campaign is the one that costs the least but gets the most results. That is what you have here. This is especially helpful for small niche businesses. Those types of businesses can really take advantage of this book.
It is admittedly weak on the web side of things but I have never really found that to be a very useful avenue for anyone but the major players that can afford to buy costly advertising. No this is for small businesses that do most of their deals face to face. Easy money This book is great. It's easy enough to follow for the complete layman but inciteful enough for the experienced entrepreneur. I would recomend this book to anyone with a business of their own or just a passion for sales and marketing.
