06/20/2013	The Executive Playbook to Inbound Marketing & Sales Over the past few years, we’ve witnessed a tectonic shift in the way people work and live. To build awareness and generate demand, companies can no longer rely on the "push" model of marketing and sales. Executives today need a different playbook. That's why companies are adopting the inbound methodology. Inbound marketing and sales is about integrating content and information for a more richer, relevant, and personalized experience. It's no surprise that 48% of executives plan to increase inbound marketing spending this year – the third year in a row that inbound budgets are increasing at a near 50% pace. So please accept our invitation and join us in Chicago on June 20th to learn how effective leaders build a scalable inbound organization. Click here to learn more and register.
