Will your better mouse trap bring customers to your door, or are they already beating a path to your competitor? Would you like more customers?

The 4th seminar in our "59 Minute to a Better Business" series, this month focuses on Guerilla Marketing. Guerilla Marketing is a tactic of J. Conrad Levinson which helps you to effectively market your business, often times with little or no out-of-pocket expense.
