Guerrilla Marketing
• A personal letter intentionally left on the back seat of a bus• A billboard altered to subvert its message• A banner hung from a bridge• A costumed hero handing out bundled letters of protest
CAPTURES ATTENTION AND IMAGINATION BECAUSE IT IS OUT
OF THE ORDINARY!• Because creativity, imagination and resourcefulness are more
important for successful guerrilla marketing than big budgets and access to mass media, it is particularly suited to NGOs and rights advocates

Guerrilla Marketing
Things to Consider…• Who is your target audience? Where is the best place to reach them?
What is the best time of day or season?• What is your desired outcome? What do you want your audience to experience or do?• Do you have the resources and capacity to undertake your action?
Do you need help from outside professionals or volunteers?• How visible is your target location? Different types of people frequent
different neighborhoods, and different locations have different safety, security and accessibility concerns
