                    Top 7 Reasons Why You Should Be Promoting Guerrilla 
 Marketing Bombshells
 by Sid Hale
 You probably heard all of the buzz about Guerrilla 
 Marketing Bombshells (GMBS) during the pre-launch. 
 Billed as "the world's first Guerrilla network 
 marketing company, it is a joint effort of Mark Joyner
 and Jay Conrad Levinson. 
 GMBS has been out of pre-launch long enough that I 
 thought perhaps it was time for someone besides Mark 
 to go on record with their impressions of the program.
 1. Guerrilla Marketing for the New Millennium
 This section is really the latest addition to Jay 
 Conrad Levinson's famous Guerrilla Marketing Series.
 It is presented as a Primer, so the tendency is to 
 read this section once, and go on to the other 
 benefits of GMBS. In reality, this is a reference work
 that should be referred to over and over (presuming 
 you won't be able to memorize it all), in the course 
 of defining, launching, and maintaining your Guerrilla 
 Marketing Campaign.
 2. Jam-Packed Monthly Newsletter
 Not two articles and four ads!! We're talking content!
 The typical monthly issue of BombShells contains 
 around 30 short articles and/or interviews (including 
 4 or 5 videos), covering a broad range of marketing 
 topics. Let's face it. You can't put that many 
 articles in one issue, just covering Search Engine 
 Optimization (as an example).
 There's bound to be something here for anyone needing 
 marketing advice, and these are archived so you can 
 refer back to them over and over.
 3. Coaching Forums
 This is often mistaken as being the whole program. 
 Well, the 2 coaching forums are important (and 
 unique) - and the very nature of a forum makes for a 
 lot of dynamic content and a tremendous educational 
 resource.
 The first forum consists of coaching for any business 
 (online or off), and the second is targeted at 
 marketing the program itself. These are moderated by 
 Jay Conrad Levinson and his staff of Guerrilla 
 Marketing coaches, but allow any member to post their 
 own solutions for another member's questions.
 The combination of expert coaches and member inputs 
 all comes together in the form of general Guerrilla 
 Marketing solutions that apply to almost any business, 
 as well as very unique solutions to fit a particular 
 line of business, geography, etc.
 The sense of community that is fostered by membership 
 participation helps create offline relationships where 
 one member may have a unique talent or experience that 
 can be shared with another, and successful Joint 
 Ventures have already been formed between members that 
 otherwise may never have found each other.
 4. Weekly Live Chat
 I normally find chat sessions to be very difficult to 
 follow. Everyone seems to "talk" at once!
 With the moderated form of chat used in GMBS, Jay 
 Levinson and Mark Joyner can focus on responding to 
 one questioner at a time, so the whole "conversation" 
 holds together better and is much easier to follow.
 Of course, that's just logistics. The real value here 
 is immediate feedback from the best in the business. 
 Oh, and like the monthly Bombshells, transcripts of 
 the Weekly Live Chat sessions are also archived on the 
 member site.
 5. Exclusive Marketing Rights!
 Here's where it gets interesting!
 The above features are the most important, because 
 they are the product, and bring great value to any 
 business of any size. No business survives without 
 marketing, so the market for these resources is 
 limited only by the number of businesses, globally.
 If your business happens to be marketing, and 
 marketing tools and information - membership in 
 Guerrilla Marketing Bombshells offers some unique 
 opportunities. Besides benefiting from the use of 
 these resources like any other business, you are 
 automatically a member of the GMBS affiliate program.
 This means that you can market the program itself, but 
 it goes further than that. Since membership in GMBS is 
 required, you won't be competing with those that 
 market every FREE to Join affiliate program. While 
 generally, I don't believe you should pay to serve as 
 a part of the sales force for any product - I have no 
 problem at all paying the monthly fee for access to 
 this product, and it means I also benefit from having 
 fewer competing marketers of this same product.
 In essence, if (like me) you supply marketing tools 
 and information, a GMBS membership also makes you a 
 member of a pretty exclusive affiliate program.
 6. New Products
 Mark Joyner has stated that all of his new product 
 efforts will be released exclusively through Guerrilla 
 Marketing Bombshells.
 For the Affiliate Marketer who joins GMBS, this 
 translates to:
 A rather exclusive affiliate agreement for each of 
 those products, as well!
 The first of those (just released) is Web Hit Machine 
 (more info at 
 https://www.gmktgb.com/order/ref.php?u=viralads).
 Unless you are reading this in my own newsletter, you 
 have already been "touched" by Web Hit Machine.
 You see, I planned to review GMBS a little over a 
 month ago, but just as I was ready to publish - the 
 imminent release of Web Hit Machine was announced. Web 
 Hit Machine is the first discrete product offered by 
 GMBS (above and beyond the program itself), so I 
 decided to wait until I had the opportunity to 
 evaluate it. When I saw Web Hit Machine, I was very 
 impressed (and even more so once I started using it), 
 so I decided to use this article as my own pilot test 
 of this new product.
 Mark Joyner has also stated that a new, better version 
 of his popular ROIbot product will also be available 
 for promotion through GMBS.
 As Mark is one of the most prolific internet 
 marketers, and he has put himself 100% behind 
 Guerrilla Marketing Bombshells, I expect much more to 
 come in the future.
 7. Promotional Assistance
 I have not dwelled on the fact that GMBS uses a multi-
 level marketing model for affiliate compensation (and 
 I won't), as that would just lead us into a discussion 
 of the compensation scheme - and you can see that for 
 yourselves at http://www.gmktgb.com/page/viralads.
 It is important to understand, though, that it works 
 through a very narrow forced matrix - creating a very 
 real possibility of spillover. In fact, people who 
 signed up directly under GMBS after pre-launch, have 
 been assigned to top producers as an incentive.
 Besides the sales page, you won't see a lot of the 
 more common sales aids for GMBS. For instance there 
 are no banners.
 What you will find, instead, is a 5 step quick start 
 process that includes a subscription form for 
 Guerrilla Marketing Daily (GMD). GMD is a daily "quick 
 bite" containing a specific marketing tip that is sent 
 on your behalf to any subscribers that opt-in through 
 you. GMBS will then continuously market to that 
 subscriber on your behalf.
 Other forms of promotion are, of course, encouraged - 
 but they will take creativity and ingenuity on your 
 part. You won't build a down line for this by slapping 
 banner ads up on a lot of free sites.
 Remember the 2nd of the forums on GMBS? It is 
 dedicated to helping you formulate and execute 
 creative marketing campaigns for GMBS, itself.
 In conclusion, 
 Guerrilla Marketing Bombshells is, perhaps, the most 
 beneficial resource available to marketers in any line 
 of business. 
 The quality of this resource has previously been out 
 of the reach of small to medium businesses, but 
 internet technology and the design of the Guerrilla 
 Marketing Bombshells program make access to premium 
 marketing advise affordable to those businesses today. 
 This quality of product, and huge market size have 
 been rare in most offers promoted using the multi-
 level marketing model, and these will be the factors 
 that make Guerrilla Marketing Bombshells a long-term 
 success.
