Guerrilla marketing is a term used to describe unconventional marketing tactics, particularly those with low cost or no cost, which rely on time, energy and imagination rather than a big marketing budget, so they are ideal for the cash-strapped small business in the present economic climate.

The advantages of a buy-sell agreement are well known to owners of closely-held businesses and their advisors. First, a buy-sell agreement creates a “market” for what would otherwise be an unmarketable asset. Second, a buy-sell agreement assures that the financial security of the deceased or withdrawing owner’s family will not be tied to the future success of the business. This is particularly important to the business owner who feels that the business will likely flounder in his/her absence. Third, the remaining owners do not want to be in business with a withdrawn, and now inactive, “partner” nor with a deceased owner’s spouse or children. Finally, if properly designed and drafted, a buy-sell agreement can help fix the value of a deceased owner’s interest for estate tax purposes.
