Introduction

Recently, I was having coffee with a good friend and fellow Marketing Agency owner and we started chatting about how much Marketing has changed over the years. Then I asked her this question: “What is one aspect of our role as marketers that you think will never change?”

Her answer: “We will always be responsible for creating and executing campaigns that generate leads and drive revenue.”

Then I asked this follow up question: “With so many different marketing tools and platforms available, which ones are worth investing in?”

Her Answer: “HubSpot – for sure.  It is the foundation I recommend for all my clients.”

I nodded my head. 

I couldn’t agree more. 

HubSpot – in case you are unfamiliar – is an all-in-one platform that offers a complete range of marketing, sales, and customer service tools to help businesses deliver a seamless experience to their customers no matter where they are in their purchase lifecycle.

In this blog post, we’ll focus on Marketing Hub – one of HubSpot’s five “Hubs” or platforms.  The others are Sales Hub, Service Hub, and Operations Hub & CMS Hub each of which can be purchased individually or as an integrated solution.

Here are 10 aspects of HubSpot Marketing Hub that when utilized together maximize its value to your business.
