This article joins a host of other valuable resources freely available to existing and prospective students, including whitepapers, expert analysis, and marketing-related films.

“The simple headphone manufacturing company, Beats, has utilised some aggressive and noteworthy marketing tactics which eventually resulted in the recent $3.2 billion buy-out by Apple – one of the biggest deals in the electronic industry,” the article explains. “How did they grow so big in such a short time?”

The article weighs the various pros and cons of guerrilla marketing, while showcasing some of the most effective tactics employed by Beats to generate brand awareness, stating that “the ultimate goal of any guerrilla marketing tactic is to get as much media attention as possible for the least amount of money.” It goes on to warn inexperienced marketers about the challenges and complications associated with such a controversial marketing practise.
