"Jay is one of the foremost business marketing experts in the world. No one knows how to use the weapons of the trade better than industry expert Jay Levinson. He is living proof that his unconventional marketing ideas work."
- Entrepreneur Magazine
WHAT IS GUERRILLA MARKETING ?
Guerrilla Marketing is an unconventional system of promotions that relies on time, energy and imagination rather than a big marketing budget.
Typically, Guerrilla Marketing tactics are unexpected and unconventional; consumers are targeted in unexpected places, which can make the idea that's being marketed memorable, generate buzz, and even spread virally. The term was coined and defined by Jay Conrad Levinson in his 1984 book 'Guerrilla Marketing'. The term has since entered the popular vocabulary and marketing textbooks. In the midst of the current global economic crisis, Guerrilla Marketing is a MUST in the way you conduct your business and how you should market your product and/or service.
How is Guerrilla Marketing different from traditional marketing?

Old-fashioned Marketing..

Guerrilla Marketing..

Invests in money in the marketing process

Invests in time, energy, imagination and knowledge

Uses guesswork in marketing

Uses the science of psychology, laws of human behavior

Concentrates on traffic, responses, or gross sales

Profits are the only yardstick by which you measure your marketing

Being oriented to companies with limitless bank accounts

Geared to small business

Ignores customers once they've purchased

Have a fervent devotion to customer follow-up

Intimidates small business owners

Removes the mystique from the entire marketing process, clarifies it

Competes with other businesses

Preaches the gospel of cooperation, urging you to help others and let them help you

Tries to make sales

Dedicated to making relationships, for long-term relationships are paramount in the 21st century


...learn about the rest in our 1st Guerrilla Marketing Workshop!

These are 19 very critical differences and are probably the reasons that the concept of Guerrilla Marketing has filled a void in the world's economy explaining why the guerrilla books have been translated into 39 languages, sold over two million copies, are required reading in many MBA programs, are available in audiotape and videotape versions, as computer software, as a nationally-syndicated column, as an online report and are the most popular and widely-read marketing books in the world.

Heroic Leadership with Chris Lowney

Heroic Leadership with
Chris Lowney
Live in Manila!
3pm-5pm
March 26, 2009
Ateneo, Rockwell

The world is facing its worst economic crisis since the Great Depression - and companies all over the world are laying off people and looking for ways to survive.

But one company has faced far worse challenges: wars, persecution, continuing hardship, public misconceptions about their brand, difficulties in recruiting new talent, challenges in keeping existing staff. Despite all these problems, they faced year in and year out, the company survived - and continues to survive all around the world.

On March 26, 2009, from 3pm-5pm at Ateneo, Rockwell, you can get insights on the best practices of this 450-year old company - insights that can help you lead your company, and yourself, through this crisis, and come out better and stronger. These insights will be shared by Chris Lowney, a former Jesuit who became a managing director for J.P. Morgan. Chris Lowney's unique blend of spiritual inquisitiveness, combined with management discipline, led him to write the highly-acclaimed book Heroic Leadership, which details the four core leadership pillars upon which the Jesuits achieved their enduring success.

Emerge as a Great Leader.
Leaders make great companies, but few of us truly understand how to turn ourselves and others into great leaders.
Chris Lowney, a former Jesuit and executive with J. P. Morgan, reveals the leadership principles that have guided Jesuit leaders in their diverse pursuits for more than 450 years.
Eschewing flashy techniques, Heroic Leadership focuses on the four core pillars:
· Self-awareness: Understanding your strengths, weaknesses, values, and worldview
· Ingenuity: Confidently innovating and adapting to a changing world
· Love: Engaging others with a positive attitude that unlocks their potential
· Heroism: Energizing yourself and others with heroic ambitions and a passion for excellence
The four principles address a person's whole life-personal and professional--and are rooted in the idea that we are all leaders. Lowney shows how the same principles that inspired sixteenth-century Jesuits can still mold dynamic leaders in the twenty-first century in all walks of life.

Reviews and accolades for Heroic Leadership
"Lowney does a wonderfully engaging job of making clear the connections between our current leadership challenges and the principles employed so effectively by the Jesuits."
- Edward J. Kelly III, President and CEO, Mercantile Bankshares Corp.

"As Asia surges forward, its managers are realizing that shallow leadership checklists and flashy management slogans from the West do not always work. Heroic Leadership sets out four key principles of whole-person leadership that . . . can be applied across cultures and geographies. . . . [A]n enlightening reference for those seeking to unlock leadership potential in themselves and in others."
- Jackson Tai, Chief Executive Officer, Development Bank of Singapore

"This 450-year-old institution [seems] as current today as it was four centuries ago. Lowney shows us how every employee can and should be a leader and that love-driven leadership does work."
- Richard K. Green, President and COO, Blistex, Inc.

Who is Chris Lowney?
Chris Lowney is unique among business speakers. He was a former managing director of J.P. Morgan-but the only training he had before he entered the corporate world was as a Jesuit.
In his book Heroic Leadership, Chris talks about the insights you can get from an order that was founded in 1540 by ten men with no capital and no business plan. Surviving through centuries of war, crisis, persecution, and economic hardship, the Jesuits have endured because of four core leadership pillars. Chris will share these insights, and more, during his very brief visit to the Philippines.

"The seminar was really very informative & useful for leadership techniques & considerations."
~ Jennifer Arriola Del Prado, NEC Philippines, Inc.
Excerpt from the "The Servant Leader"

Your Values. What do you stand for? How do you want people to behave?

Fewer than 10% of organizations around the world have clear, written values. But values are important because they drive people's behavior while they are working on the purpose and the picture of the future.
Most organizations that do have values either have too many values and/or they are not ranked. Research shows that people can't focus on more than three or four values if you really want to impact behavior. Why? Because life is about value conflicts. When these conflicts arise, people need to know what value they should focus on.

Walt Disney intuitively knew this when he ranked safety ahead of courtesy, the show and efficiency among their four values. Why did he do that? Because he knew if a guest left the park on a stretcher, the guest would not have the same smile on their face as was present when entering the park. So if a cast member heard a scream while being courteous to a guest, they would excuse themselves immediately and focus on the number one value - safety.

What are the key values of your organization? How are they ranked in order of importance? True success in servant leadership depends on how clearly values are defined, ordered, and lived by the leader.

Have your child learn the amazing Brain tool - Mind Mapping through the Buzan Power Learning for Teens 2-day Workshop on March 21 and 28, 2009 (2 Saturdays), 9am-3pm with Buzan-licensed facilitator, Ivy Marquez. The Mind Map tool was developed by Tony Buzan - past president of the MENSA and who has the world's highest Creativity Quotient.
As a parent, wouldn't you want to see your teenager achieve their full potential?
In school, teens are taught how to note-take, but not to note-make. The main difference is that information is given to teens, but there is no method to teach these teens how to use and apply these information. With Mind Mapping, not only will it help teens organize their thoughts and notes, but it will help them remember and retain information and "learn how to learn."
"Mind Maps® were developed in the late 60's by Tony Buzan as a way of helping students make notes that use only keywords and images. They are much quicker to make and it is much easier to remember and review."
~Peter Russel, Author of Creative Manager, Cambridge University, UK
