19 Marketing Experts Share Tips and Insights – Inbound Marketing Summit 2010 Preview

As we get closer to the Inbound Marketing Summit on October 6-7th (you can save 50% off using source code EBOOK50), Mike Volpe of HubSpot and I teamed up to conduct a survey of the speakers. We had a total of 19 speakers respond, including Chris Brogan, David Meerman Scott, Dharmesh Shah, Steve Garfield, Scott Stratten and more. We gathered all of the responses, analyzed all of the data, and have released a free ebook with the results of the research.

We were interested by some of the data including the prediction that social media will drive more business value than SEO by 2013 and that over the next 3 years Google and Facebook will decline in importance while something new (and currently unknown) will emerge as the most important website or service.

Want to see what else these experts had to say? Here is the complete ebook as a presentation. If you want your own copy, you can download it.


What currently drives the most business value for your company? How do you think that will change over the next 3 years?

Synchronize, Backup, and Expand Your Social Networks

What would you do if you woke up today and found out that overnight Twitter closed up shop?  What if it was LinkedInFacebook?  Would you be able to still stay in contact with the networks you have spent time building on these platforms?  My guess is that you would remember some of your contacts, especially those who you talk with most often.  Of course, as the new platform popped up, you would find your way back to some of the other people whom you don’t speak with often but who are very active in the various communities.  Well, to help lessen the damage that such an incident would cause, Christopher S. Penn and John Wall, from Marketing Over Coffee, have to put together a free ebook on synchronizing social networks.

You can download the free ebook here.  Then, after you’re done reading it, make sure you synchronize your social networks.  Are we connected on Twitter, Facebook, LinkedIn, FriendFeed, Flickr and the others?  If not, take the time to friend me up on these networks.  You can find all of my active networks in the FriendFeed widget to the right.
