Thanks to everyone who attended our March 8th general meeting with the amazing Dan Tyre of HubSpot. Not only did we talk about “SMarketing” and Marketing Automation, Dan gave us some valuable business and life lessons.

It was a really inspiring talk!

In fact, we couldn’t fit everything in the time allotted, so as promised here is a link to Dan’s presentation. There are some SUPER helpful resources for Sales and Marketing alignment mentioned here – so don’t miss out.

On that note – our April 12th meeting features 12 Actionable Ways to Boost Your Video Marketing with Holly Starks and Jeremy Vest – it’s time to sign up now and get it on the calendar.

See you next month.

Marketing automation is used by both B2B and B2C companies more than ever. But it’s not just about having the tools – it’s about using them effectively.

Our speaker this month is founding HubSpot employee and marketing automation evangelist Dan Tyre. He’s bringing a personalized version of his SMarketing presentation (Sales and Marketing Alignment). As inbound marketing soars in popularity, inbound sales becomes equally important to help scale revenue. Marketers are keen to embrace inbound, sales teams are sometimes a bit reluctant. Learn how sales & marketing alignment is critically important to success for scaling your enterprise.

Join us on Thursday, March 8th at our new venue (Communion Neighborhood Cooperative) and new time (6:00pm). Even better, you get to network with your fellow digital marketers and enjoy a glass of beer, wine, or whiskey with appetizers and pizza.

Tickets for the event are just $40 – or if you want you and your team to have free admission for a year – check out our Membership options where you can get in for up to 65% off the non-member price.

Many thanks to our moderator Sean Jackson of Copyblogger, and also our panelists Jarrett Shaffer and Michelle Stinson-Ross. We also did a Facebook Live broadcast – check it out on our Facebook Page.

But really – you should register for next month’s event – it’s much more fun in person!

Why online legal wrangling is wild and weird

The internet is more integrated into our lives, but there’s still an element of wild west out there. Anyone with a little time and even less money can set up a site or leave oodles of comments that can make life difficult for you or your clients.

Thought you knew how the law works online? Most of us discovered it’s a whole new kettle of catfish when Mazin Sbaiti unveiled the fascinating world of online law at DFWSEM in September.

That’s where DFWSEM’s September speaker Mazin Sbaiti comes in. He’s like Batman, only without the secret identity and the gizmos and the billions and billions of dollars. Which…uh. Hm. So he’s nothing like Batman. But he is out there trying to make the ‘net suck less.
