All the cool companies use Hubspot. Why not you?

by | Nov 4, 2015 | Life, Marketing

People have transformed how they consume information, research products and services, make purchasing decisions and share their views and experiences. The customer is more in control than ever — and tunes out traditional sales and marketing messages more than ever. Yet businesses still rely on the same sales and marketing playbook they have used for more than a decade. This mismatch in buyer behavior and company tactics is what led Brian Halligan and Dharmesh Shah to start HubSpot in 2006 and create the vision for the inbound experience. (more…)

Simon Sinek and My First INBOUND Adventure

What can I say… I am a huge Simon Sinek fan. My personal following of Simon started with the infamous “Golden Circle” TedTalk on YouTube. After watching the talk – I immediately went to the website to learn more about this random personality talking about finding your why. I read his book, “Start with Why” and it has helped me change my perspective how to lead and pursue my own why.

“Imagine a world where people wake up inspired to go to work. Imagine a world in which trust and loyalty are the rule rather than the exception.” – Simon Sinek, author of Start with Why

If you watched the above video you will pick up on the theme of leadership and how that transpires into our work place. The talk was inspirational to update my perspective, again, on how we go about living out our why. It is truly important to continue to focus on your personal why for marriage, relationships, career and life.

I had the opportunity to go to INBOUND 2014 in Boston, MA to hear Simon Sinek speak along with other great speakers, break out sessions and networking opportunities. The time was well spent on last year’s conference.

Follow me for the upcoming fun on Twitter and Instagram.
