My Favorite HubSpot INBOUND 2024 Sessions
Talking about my favorite sessions from the Inbound conference, there is so much to choose from, but here are my personal top three INBOUND 2024 highlights:
Content Is Not King: The New Approach To Content Marketing
As a content writer myself, this particular session both caught my eye and scared me with the title.
Neil Patel‘s session on “Content Is Not King: The New Approach to Content Marketing” was a revelation.
The alarming stats he shared—like 94% of content in Google’s index getting zero visitors—made it clear that the old methods just don’t cut it anymore.
Neil’s insights on how to truly stand out in a crowded space were invaluable. I left feeling inspired and equipped with new strategies to create content that genuinely resonates and drives engagement.
Meet Breeze
Meeting Breeze was hands down the most exciting part of the entire event for me.
Seeing how AI can transform business operations and getting a glimpse into the future of HubSpot’s AI innovations into 2024 and beyond was truly inspiring.
The deep dive into Breeze’s latest features, especially Breeze Intelligence, showed just how pivotal AI will be in helping businesses grow better.
It wasn’t just a look at what’s possible now, but a thrilling preview of how AI will continue to shape the way we work and succeed.
State of HubSpot 2024: How The Best Do It Different
The “State of HubSpot 2024: How The Best Do It Different” session was a standout for me.
Revenue leaders face a critical choice: stay stagnant and risk failure, or innovate boldly with GTM strategies.
This panel, led by top thinkers in the HubSpot Ecosystem, Jonathan Burg, Sam Jacobs, Beau Brooks, Peter Caputa IV, and Jill Rowley, tackled the tough questions on being truly customer-centric, smart CRM investments, and leveraging AI to stay ahead.
It was insightful to see how the best in the business are pushing boundaries to achieve success.
