Summary of today’s HubSpot.com webinar “How Marketers Succeed in a Social World”

Yesterday’s Brand Building

  • Come up with creative.

What does that mean?

Today you need to grow your brand by cultivation, not control.

  • Stop thinking like an advertiser.
  • Start thinking like a publisher and socializer.
  • Commit to the new inbound strategy (blogging, SEO, Free Tools, Social Media, and Opt-in Email Lists).
  • Don’t dip your toe in the water.
  • Jump in ALL THE WAY.
