Guerilla marketing is out-of-the-box, exciting and memorable. Even the history of the word guerilla marketing is unique. It got its term from guerilla warfare which is a type of irregular warfare that uses small tactical strategies that have elements of surprise such as ambushes. Guerilla marketing was inspired by this term since it uses similar tactics but in the marketing world.
