As the real and virtual worlds have fused seamlessly, the playing field for businesses has been leveled, enabling the marketing and delivery of products and services from anywhere on the map irrespective of size, scale, and location. Traditional resources (time and money) and marketing tools (advertising and PR) are losing their advantage to new techniques like social networking, individual targeting and ecosystem marketing. Hence, freed from geographical, financial and demographic limitations, upstart companies can sell their wares and build their brands, outsmarting the giants. Designed to arm such Davids against Goliaths, "No Money Marketing" shows how an emerging brand can spot and tap into its marketing ecosystem of all stakeholders, and compete successfully with established brands for market share and mind share. The book enlightens entrepreneurs, marketers, and managers with the vision and road map of building their brands and capturing markets on limited budget.
