The entire collection of Guerilla Marketing books are fantastic resources for ideas and strategies to climb the mountain of your industry. I found these books to be very insightful and useful. I read this book a few years ago and managed to boom my business by applying many of the bright ideas presented by this author. It's actually one of the better ones in the series. Everyone in business should indulge themselves in these books. They are a goldmine of information.

In the author's own words "you'll want to read Guerrilla Marketing after you have finished this". I agree with him, with one exception: I wish I had read Guerrilla Marketing before this one !
Guerrilla Marketing is a legandry book by J. Conrad Levinson, but this one, Guerrilla Marketing Attack is just a book to earn some money on the fame and name of Guerrilla Marketing.
It's really amazing, each topic, touches upon a subject and then says "see Guerrilla Marketing for more details". There is nothing "new" in this books as the title suggest, just summaries of the ideas and points covered in Guerrilla Marketing
J. C. Levinson has done his name the worse by releasing Guerrilla Marketing Attack.

The list of 100 things to do is a great starting point for your marketing attack. If you are a business owner, a marketing specialist, or anyone in the customer oriented business, and you have not had the chance to read this book yet, get it now. It is a bargain for any one who has the urge to make each and every day count in making a company better. It is loaded with insightful ideas that are very BASIC but if implemented sure to enhance the value of your company. For instance, do you know WHERE you should be spending (allocating) your Advertising budget? Do you know what to do with a prospect that becomes an actual customer? Do you know how much time it takes for an advertisment to actually have any effect? All the answers to these basic questions are in this book.

Jay Conrad Levinson is the Godfather of Marketing in our generation.

Way before there was Jay Abraham there was Jay Conrad Levinson. I have been reading Jays material for well over 16 years and I can still say that his material is relevant and his insight keen. Way before I even had a clue of what marketing was (at least outside of my first class on marketing and I still can't tell you what my professor was trying to say) Jay Conrad Levinson opened up my understanding about marketing through this book.

WHAT HAPPENED TO ME WHEN I READ THE BOOK...
When I applied the methods Jay has taught from this book I began to see more clearly what was actually taking place on the front side of businesses I was working for. I also began to see why some companies I had been working for were failing to really expand the depth of their clientele.

GUERRILLA MARKETING ATTACK GIVES YOU A PREMISE & FOUNDATION...
No developer of property or architect would ever consider building a huge Sky Scraper without considering building a very strong foundation first. If you want to build a great business that turns out to be a tall marketing Sky Scraper then this book is your foundation. This book gives you the ABC's and the "D through Z's" of marketing.

WHAT A MAJOR NEWSPAPER SAID ABOUT THIS BOOK...
The Los Angeles Times wouldn't have called this book "A veritable plum pudding of marketing techniques and secrets" if it were not just that because their credibility is way too important to put on the line for Jay Conrad Levinson.

The title couldn't be more misleading. It was too insipid to be knowledgeable; the poor man's Guerrilla PR Wired. That is the book to read if you want first class PR advice. Guerrilla Marketing Attack can be read by those who already have knowledge of PR, at which point you won't need to read the book anyway.
