For a Labor Day promotion, we had Susan come to the shop in Uptown Sedona to perform on keyboard and vocals, meet the public and sign autographs.

Branding and Business Identity - Image is Everything!
Underestimating the importance of image is a common marketing mistake. When we talk about image in business, it encompasses a broad spectrum. We’re talking about overall image of storefront; interior design, marketing materials, website and even your people, (staff members). All of these elements determine how your business is perceived.

Imagine: An ongoing advertising, marketing and publicity campaign for your small business that succeeds beyond your wildest expectations. The cost: Pocket change.

Fantasy? Hardly. Such a scenario is not only possible, but is happening all across America today. The technique is called Guerrilla Marketing, and it is being utilized more and more as advertising costs soar and media options expand in a marketplace that is volatile, unpredictable and fraught with risk.

Consider this: The average advertising-marketing expenditure for large corporations and big businesses in America today is a little under ten percent of annual gross income. For small businesses, the average ranges from 10 to 25 percent.

That's a lot of money for any size business. And much of the advertising-marketing budget is wasted on the scattershot approach, which means untargeted ads in newspapers (a crap shoot at best) or direct mail (in which a 1-2 percent return is considered successful).

Fuggedaboutit! Guerrilla Marketing means never having to say you're sorry about having a next-to-zero ad budget. It means using unconventional ways of promoting your business. It means using your energy, creativity and ingenuity to bring about the desired results without gambling next month's mortgage payment.

In this ongoing series, I will present several examples of successful Guerrilla marketing campaigns as well as time-tested ideas for promoting your small business for next to nothing. Example one: Entertain the public.

Everyone likes entertainment. Especially when it's free. For a client in Sedona, my firm ran a series of small, visually entertaining ads in the local media featuring an attractive young woman who is a model as well as an aspiring singer-songwriter. We'll call her Susan.

The client sells carpets and other home furnishings. It's a tough market with a lot of competition. The ads didn't cost much for the quarter, probably under $1,000. Our model was always depicted with the product, saying lines that were takeoffs on familiar ad campaigns or cultural icons: "I'll Make You An Offer You Can't Refuse!" or "It's All About You…and Your Home!"
