01

From difference to direction.

CHE is not new. From 2017 to 2022, it operated as a guerrilla-marketing agency led by Daniel Che, working across positioning, websites, content, advertising, analytics and launch support. The relaunch keeps that craft — and changes what it serves.

Earlier CHE

“We do things a little differently.”

Bold, resourceful, unconventional. A red star and guerrilla thinking made the brand hard to ignore.

CHE · Light in the Dark

Good causes deserve good methods.

Guerrilla thinking becomes ethical marketing: still inventive, still sharp, but guided by clarity, dignity and purpose.

Historical client feedback · Facebook + Google

Earlier CHE, documented.

Historical public feedback survives across two independent platforms: Facebook recommendations and the CHE Google Business profile. We preserve it as evidence of earlier work, not as feedback on the 2026 repositioning.

Find where the light is missing.

Most meaningful projects do not have one marketing problem. They have a chain of small visibility failures. We look for the break in the chain first.

01

Clarity

Can a stranger explain what you do?

02

Trust

Does the experience support the claims?

03

Path

Is the next useful action obvious?

04

Measurement

Do you know what is working?

05

System

Do the parts reinforce each other?

A Light Audit starts here: clarity, trust, path, measurement and system. We find the first break in the chain — even when the answer is not “more marketing.”

03

From meaning to visibility.

Not five disconnected services. One visibility system — built around the problem that actually needs solving.

01

Position

Make the value clear.

Positioning · messaging · offer
02

Build

Turn meaning into useful experiences.

Websites · journeys · interfaces
03

Reach

Help the right people find it.

Google Ads · search · content
04

Measure

Let the data tell the truth.

Analytics · experiments · learning
05

Accelerate

Use AI where it genuinely helps.

Research · localisation · workflows

Clear enough to sell.

Different enough to remember.

Ethical enough to trust.

04

A living laboratory.

Peaceful World is a separate nonprofit organization founded and led by Daniel Che. It is not a client testimonial — it is the clearest public place to see this approach being developed in practice.

Making a complex mission easier to see, understand and use.

The work spans information architecture, product pages, multilingual publishing, analytics, public-facing tools and AI-assisted workflows. It is not a finished case study; it is ongoing practice.

Our ethical line.

Marketing is power. We choose what we connect it to — and which methods we refuse to use.

We persuade by clarity,

not manipulation.

Ethical marketing is not weaker marketing. It is disciplined power.
×No dark patterns
×No empty noise
×No growth at any cost
×No harmful things made meaningful
06

Clarity is a process.

We treat strategy and design as a learning loop, not a reveal at the end of a black box.

01

Discover

Understand the context, people and real constraints.

02

Design

Shape the strategy, structure and key experiences.

03

Build

Create, integrate and launch with care.

04

Learn

Measure, listen and iterate for greater real-world impact.

AI accelerates the work. Human judgment protects the meaning.

07

Work worth putting our name on.

01Does it create real value?
02Can it be promoted honestly?
03Would we put CHE next to it?

CHE is for nonprofits, educational and cultural projects, social entrepreneurs, ethical businesses and mission-driven teams that can be promoted honestly.

Legal form is not the filter. Meaning, real benefit and ethical compatibility are.

These guys are on fire! They do everything at a high level, and you’re left with a real sense of satisfaction. In short, I recommend them!

Guerrilla marketing is something over the edge of conformism. Daniel has natural talent to attract attention to whatever the object is in smart and “sexy” ways.
Sergio K.Facebook review · 13 Dec 2017 · original in English
I worked with Daniel on several marketing projects — he's got an amazing insight into the management of marketing campaigns! Keep doing a great job, man!

Everything you’ve long wanted to know about guerrilla — and the most creative — marketing, but were afraid to ask. You’ve come to the right place, and apparently at the right time!

I asked CHE to review our marketing strategy. Guys were happy to help. They gave me various bright ideas how to improve our business model, marketing strategy. Additionally, they provided advice on our website to improve conversion rate. I recommend CHE as marketing experts and look forward to future cooperation.
