<h2 style="text-align: center;">
</h2>
<br />
To promote Shark Week, Discovery Channel dresses its entire Maryland headquarters as a <a href="http://www.adrants.com/images/shark_week.jpg" target="_blank">shark</a>.<br />
In terms of creating buzz, this piece of marketing is huge. The set-up costs are probably pretty huge as well.<br />
However, you don’t need a great-white-sized budget to do this sort of marketing. In fact, you can do it for under $100. You just need to apply the principles of Guerilla Marketing, defined as: <a href="http://www.entrepreneur.com/encyclopedia/term/82168.htmlhttp://" target="_blank">an unconventional way of performing marketing activities on a tight budget</a>.<br />
Here are some great examples that might inspire you.<br />
<strong><u>Get visual</u></strong><br />
More Shark Week! <a href="http://cdn.creativeguerrillamarketing.com/wp-content/uploads/HLIC/018ce400db86370c22207dde443c2e71.jpg" target="_blank">This smaller campaign has some real bite</a>. It’s captivating visually, all but ensuring that passersby stop and take a look. For your guerrilla campaign, take a page out of Discovery’s book and make your campaign visually compelling.<br />
<strong><u>Go where your customers are</u></strong><br />
Reaching busy corporate execs who work long hours is tricky. Ultimat Vodka went directly to where they work – <a href="http://mashable.com/2012/07/30/market-vodka-pitchman-window-washer/" target="_blank">or directly outside, in fact</a> – and had a dialogue. You might not have the budget to replicate a stunt like this but the idea of going to customers in their environment can cost you very little.<br />
<strong><u>Create a novel business ‘card’</u></strong><br />
<a href="http://www.daynasteele.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/cards.jpg" target="_blank">Dayna Steele has her guitar pick. Peter Shankman has his poker chip</a>. Both items serve as business cards for these two entrepreneurs. They’re also inexpensive talking points for generating word of mouth.<br />
<strong><u>Do something unexpected</u> </strong><br />
Being unexpected is a key element of guerrilla marketing. Whether your campaign surprises through visuals (Shark Week) or through location (<a href="http://www.designer-daily.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/02/seafoodfestival.jpg" target="_blank">clam shells</a>), the idea is for people to be so surprised they tell their friends about it.<br />
<strong><u>Differentiate your business</u> </strong><br />
What makes Mini Cooper different is its size. <a href="http://www.designer-daily.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/02/d8ae634221d192cfef7128c3e6123d31.jpg" target="_blank">Depositing a Mini Cooper box</a> in the same trash pile as TV boxes and garbage bags is a great way of demonstrating it. What makes you different, and how can you show it? If you can do it for the cost of a cardboard box, you’ve struck guerrilla gold.<br />
<strong><u>Use the great outdoors</u></strong><br />
There’s no better way to do low-cost guerrilla marketing then to use street scenery that’s already there, right outside your office. <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj_FFI5CAIyyQy3CK6X9PxchJFh45aeAF83scq676wDqxjsljfVFcggPbLpAE9541a2wvJjP6z0Vk7B_pvj_kR81nStTWyaxePy2DrGC7uU6X0ckrKU6BIgbfkdypBgTibvb9eqnvNXJtw/s400/ballet.jpg" target="_blank">Think like this Ballet company</a> and customize the surroundings in a way that’s relevant to your business.<br />
<strong><u>Go mobile (and we’re not talking about cell phones)</u></strong><br />
Think you have no budget to advertise your business? Think again. If you have a car, you have a platform. <a href="http://cdn.creativeguerrillamarketing.com/wp-content/uploads/HLIC/6f4576180d65242b30e7045dafba469e.jpg" target="_blank">It’s as easy as thinking of a graphic, getting a sticker made, and pasting it on your car</a>. Have fun with it.<br />
<strong><u>Make your packaging an ad</u></strong><br />
Your customers can be your biggest adverts when you give them the tools. <a href="http://cdn.creativeguerrillamarketing.com/wp-content/uploads/HLIC/827506948f8d826f71d39481b3f452d7.jpg" target="_blank">Create a bag that draws attention</a> to customers as they walk the street. Or make unique packaging that entices customers to tell their friends about it or tweet about it. If you’re a retailer who uses bags, get creative and make them work harder for you.<br />
<strong><u>Let people be your adverts</u></strong><br />
<a href="http://inagorillacostume.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/Skin-Cancer-Guerrilla-Marketing-Campaign-Human-Post-it-Notes.jpg" target="_blank">This pink Post-It Man is sure to create buzz for your business.</a> The beauty of this campaign is that people can peel off a post-it for themselves. That’s messaging that can travel fast! And if you can afford a bunch of post-its (and we suspect you can), you can do this campaign – you can be the talent!<br />
<strong><u>Think small</u></strong><br />
With guerrilla marketing ideas, you don’t have to do something big and elaborate to catch people’s attention. <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhH9b7UwCG9YVxSUJPHovw-aZHmxuRAwK8ilM-97S81D5ObEYmrmGXYouZUuAP1O-Fqs7CwzeY0QL9zKy-YXyRW29EiBGG41cLlKO_w6-8f6qjKmOGgw6DIk12wmI6Pf3PJ96T0VJoqvwA/s400/twibite.JPG" target="_blank">These ‘vampire bites’ draw people in for a closer look</a> and help <em>Twilight</em> promote their upcoming film.</div>
