It's been over a month since INBOUND 2022 - HubSpot's first-ever hybrid event, and you're still not up to date with the latest features, products and announcements?
This article is for you.
Key takeaways from C-level
In its 2022 edition, the must-attend event for agency owners and marketing profs has brought together specialized talent from over 160 countries across marketing, sales, customer success and revenue operations.
HubSpot CEO Yamini Rangan quickly set the tone for the conference and gave voice to the high-priority challenges of today's businesses - building meaningful relationships and meeting real customer needs. That said, consider these the key takeaways from HubSpot's executive team opening speech:
- As businesses question the efficacy of traditional marketing, they’re looking for new ways to reach customers
- With hybrid working schedule being the norm, it’s harder for both employees and customers to build relationships the way they used to
- Fragmented systems, data, and the huge effort involved to integrate everything is overwhelming
- Digital fatigue makes it harder than ever for customers to communicate accurately
These two we gladly decided to add: - HubSpot is getting more and more connected with B2B eCommerce
- The two areas that stood out with major improvements were payment functionality and data quality and management
