The promotion of products or services in an unconventional manner with little or no budget. Guerrilla marketing is mainly based on the idea of using the streets or public areas, such as shopping centres, parks or beaches, to reach a larger audience.

Break Me if You can – 3M Security Glass

 The guerrilla marketing campaign for 3M Security Glass is legendary. The $3 million is encased in 3M’s bulletproof glass, and a uniformed security guard asked passersby if they wanted to break the glass with their feet. If any individual were successful in their attempt, they would get to keep $3million – seems fair. Apart from $500 dollars on the top layer, all the money was fake. Although the glass may not be bulletproof, it is certainly kick proof. However, only a few people got a chance to test it. But that didn’t stop millions of people around the world from sharing this image.
