I'm not slamming inbound marketing whatsoever, in fact Green Leads is investing heavily in it for our own benefit as well as combining inbound services with traditional outbound services in order to maximize our efforts (see: Hubspot , LinkedIn , twitter , Facebook ).

This past week I was reading HubSpot's study on the state of inbound marketing , and understandably, with HubSpot being in the inbound marketing business, the study showed that the marketing spend on inbound marketing is rising. To top it off, they raised their hand. SiriusDecisions reports a different number though.

A week after the election, the topic surfaced again after reading a recent article on HubSpot's blog, Are You Unwittingly Making This Disastrous Sales Mistake? Witnessing the recent Scott Brown senatorial campaign in Massachussetts caused me to question the value of mudslinging -- I'm sure Coakley's staff is analyzing the same.

Even though I preach my own brand of outbound marketing Kool-Aid, for the past six months or so I've been drinking some of the inbound marketing variety (the orange kind from Hubspot ). Before discovering this particular flavor, we had invested a year or so working on SEO, blogging, social media, and link building.

The second is Hubspot , the inbound marketing gurus. Then it's surrounded by calls to action and the flow leads you to a next step. But the animation is not SEO-friendly, you ask? No it isn't, but does Salesforce need its home page SEO optimized? Most likely they rank OK as it is. Both are easy on the eyes.
