Day 1: loads of emailing

If you are following my marketing blog, you would know that I have developed an information memorandum to expand Marketing Eye into the US market. It is incredibly exciting times for everyone at Marketing Eye and we are all ‘on the same page’ with pushing me out the door and into another country to set up shop. Fortunately, I am not taking this personally! But Julie Schoneveld does run a good show and she has everything running very efficiently and effectively.

By

Most small businesses ignore guerilla marketing as part of their marketing mix. Why? Because most think that it’s just what the big companies do.

Well, that is true most of the time, but not because it costs alot of money to do. It’s mainly because their creative agencies or someone with a spot of ‘genius’ has come up with a guerilla marketing idea that has great potential.
