Boston StrongDo you need to cajole upper management into sending you to HubSpot's Inbound 2013 conference? Here are a few reasons you can literally copy and paste into an email to your boss. You’re welcome – and we can’t wait to see you!

The Inbound 2013 conference is in Boston 19-22, 2013 this year being held at the Hynes Convention Center. The annual event put on by HubSpot covers everything, anything Inbound Marketing. The pricing, agenda and registration information can be found at http://www.inbound.com/

Meet and Greet with Forward-Thinkers

This year’s event is going to include really talented marketers and digital-savvy professionals. It’s said that genius is contagious. Here are just a few:

1) Nate Silver – recently featured on Fast Company’s top 100 Most Creative People 2013 . Who could be more qualified to speak on data mining and blogging? We aren’t sure.

2) Seth Godin – while he’s known for his best-selling books and extremely popular blog the truth is he’s an entrepreneur who understands branding and actually practices marketing day to day.

3) HubSpotters – the founders and support staff will be there to give first-hand knowledge about inbound marketing.

4) Vendors – meet with agencies that customize on top of HubSpot every day like the really talented, good looking folks at LyntonWeb.
