Editorial Review:

When Guerrilla Marketing was first published in 1983, Jay Levinson revolutionized marketing strategies for the small-business owner with his take-no-prisoners approach to finding clients.

* programs for targeting prospects and cultivating repeat and referral business

Guerrilla Marketing is the entrepreneur's marketing bible -- and the book every small-business owner should have on his or her shelf.

The guide you need to market your business:

This is a must have book for anyone who's starting or running a small business.
