  16. 10 Reality Checks! 1. The state of the economy must always be considered, for it dictates which marketing tactics will work best. In a difficult economy, guerrillas adjust their marketing by speaking more to customers than prospects and by working like demons to gain referral and follow-up business. 2. The competitive scene is part of reality because competitors have more information than ever before, and they use it to add fuel to their marketing. You just can’t ignore competitors who are out to win the hearts and minds of your customers.

  17. 10 Reality Checks! 3. The latest technology is reality because it enables guerrillas to produce more marketing tools, to expose their message to more people, and to reduce their marketing costs as they become increasingly involved with desktop publishing, the Internet, speedy communications and affordable new media. 4. The news of the day has a major impact on reality. Your prospects keep up with the news and they react accordingly. Unless you do the same, expect the worst.

  18. 10 Reality Checks! 5. Reality also includes your marketing budget because you must live within it and make it stretch to its fullest extent.

They have many things to consider each day and you can be pretty certain that marketing is not one of them. 10. Finally, reality is knowing the value of commitment to your plan. Reality is seeing clearly that marketing is not an event, but a process. It’s a process that takes time.
