The village idiot of Las Vegas meets a big time Kansas hotshot..

"If I've ever believed anything to be true in my life? It's this! A Guerrilla marketing team of epic proportions could be assembled in Las Vegas! And when I say epic! I fucking mean epic!" At the time of my statement, I was sitting across the table from a fellow Kansas transplant in Las Vegas. The gentlemen I was chatting with? Very accomplished! Me? Not so much..But, I'm eternally optimistic and sincerely believe my time is coming! Anyways, I finally had my long awaited face time with him, and I was planning to make the most of it.

"Picture this! You know how many beautiful women call Las Vegas home? More than you could ever imagine." I was stating the obvious, but, I wanted to make sure he was with me. He was nodding his head as if he was agreeing..."Now, the greatest thing about Las Vegas? All the talent up for grabs! The prices are once in a lifetime." The economy in Las Vegas is shaky to say the least, but, my belief is that when things change? People who can get in front of the change? They will benefit like never before! The people who don't change..Well, the same old, same old? Only gets worse!

"The first thing that needs to be done? Create an E-commerce site. The site doesn't have to be that special. I suggest a collective buying power website. I've got experience with those sort of sites. They're fairly inexpensive and easy to maintain in the beginning..Once the site is in place? Recruit like crazy! Now, this is where a guy like me comes into play.Your going to need a street level guy with all the necessary   connections to bring in the proper Guerrilla team! You should see some of the people I've got in mind! Once that team is in place? I've got all sorts of marketing schemes that can be implemented!" Guerrilla Marketing revolves highly around face to face interaction with your would be audience..(festivals, business functions..) The goal of GM is to take it off the streets and get it viral! Now, I wasn't telling my fellow Kansas comrade anything that he wasn't already familiar with, but, I still had one more idea to share.

"I know what people want to see! They want reality! That's what will get people to pay attention more than anything! Now, I've been working on a script that incorporates all of my ideas into one. Both of us know that reality is a big business in Las Vegas..Besides, I'm positive it will provide an added kick in developing an organic data base for our website, and ORGANIC GROWTH is how all next level ideas start!" I left our meeting thinking he was interested in some of my ideas, which one? I'm not sure..

I like to end every post of mine with a thought I'm having..Call it the village idiot thought of the day.."The friend I was referencing in the blog is a small town Kansas kid, just like me..Even though this was the first time we actually met in person. I kind of feel like I've known him forever. What's the difference between Osage City, KS. and Madison, KS??? The truth of the matter? Not a fucking thing!"
