If you have been following the Bubble at all this week, you already know that Michael and I have been in Boston all week at #INBOUND13, a conference focused solely on inbound marketing. If you don’t know what inbound marketing is and you are looking for leads and customers, then we should talk, but that isn’t what this blog post is about.
It’s Here!
The all new Social Inbox feature from HubSpot!
Wondering why social media is important? Well, we could go on for days and tell you why or we could just say you won’t survive without it and tell you why this tool will set your company light-years ahead of your competition in the social media realm.
6 Reasons Why Social Inbox is the Best!
Here are the top 6 reasons why you need to head over to HubSpot and start using this feature. It’s revolutionizing the internet marketing and social media world.
So yesterday at INBOUND13, HubSpot launched its new Content Optimization System, blasting off into the new frontier of personalized inbound marketing and when I went to HubSpot.com today, this is what I was welcomed with on their home page:
Wait for it....
Wait for it....
Wait for it....
Well that's what we have been doing for the last month here at the Bubble! We have been waiting and waiting; waiting to share with all of you the amazing new inbound marketing tools we have available with HubSpot.
For those of you who don't live in our "bubble" we have been working with HubSpot as a partner and implementing their Inbound Marketing Software since December 2012. We have been, and still are, excited about this partnership, learning a ton and watching the leads roll in, both for us and for our clients. It's been FUN to say the least!
So, what have we been waiting for then?
I'm in Boston and I'm walking in the Hynes convention center to see Seth Godin as the first Keynote speaker of Inbound 13. This is THE conference for internet marketing and creating marketing that people actually want.
I walk in the center and join all the people half my age moving towards the escalator. I'm finally here when I get stopped on the second floor and asked for my badge which is still deep in my bag and my hands are full with the walking breakfast. Got up a bit too late for a sit down breakfast.
This week’s Internet Marketing Tips post is supposed to be Part 2 of “My New Mantra in the Form of Internet Marketing Tips," BUT instead it comes to you a day early to tell you about the way more important topic of INBOUND 2013. What is INBOUND?
You’ve seen our blogs answering the question, “why blog” and may be wondering why the push on blogging? Well…today you’re going to find out. Businesses that don’t blog will eventually die in the race for space on search engine result pages (SERPS).
Shocking as this may be, I didn’t send my first email until I was in college, which makes me think of the entire internet as a mere youth. Even so, email is “old” in online terms. Email marketing has been around as long as the internet itself and as an email marketing consultant I can tell you that it has come a long way, baby!
Baby Boomers Can Use Social Media Lead Generation Techniques Too!
posted in Lead Generation, Social Media
Lately here at Half a Bubble Out, we have crossed paths with a number of small business owners who are Baby Boomers or just becoming grandparents, asking about the validity and tangible benefits of using social media in their small business - specifically in using lead generation techniques to get new customers.
Do you have a mantra that you live by? A word or phrase that you repeatedly say over and over to yourself to encourage you in tough situations or remind you about what’s really important in life?
