Go tactical
As everyone knows by now, many companies have gone tactical in BI (business intelligence) and related investments. In a time of CapEx freezes, people are innovating in interesting ways, which is a good bit of the theme at the latest TDWI conference here in Las Vegas and gets me to the point of this post.
You can keep trying to meet and date women in the "conventional" way, and waste endless amounts of time, energy and money...pursuing girls instead of making them pursue you...Or, you can GO TACTICAL and make a modest, one-time-only investment to ensure major, long-term success with all the fun, sexy, high-quality women you can handle.
what does "go tactical" mean? idiom? popular term?
Does it mean: equipped with fancy "weapons"?
Can I say:
I do my things with an ordinary PC at home, but whenever I go out to meet a customer, I go tactical and woo him with my fansy gadgets.

Hi, The phrase sounds like it should mean 'choose short-term actions that help the present situation, without thinking bout what is best for the long-term'. tactics = short-term actions/plans strategy = long-term actions/plans I don't think the writers of these statements really understand the words 'tactics' or 'tactical'. I haven't heard the phrase 'go tactical', and my advice to you is to forget about it.
