If you want an agency to shift and make inbound work, you really have to think about the greater purpose, your company’s values, and the company’s 3 year vision.
Inthis week’s episode of The IMPACT Show, Bob and Nick talked visual search, communicating authentically, and their main topic of the day, how to make inbound work for you.
As a reminder, we’re here to help growth leaders overcome common obstacles and create breakthroughs.
IMPACT is known for its transparency within the inbound marketing community. We tell it like it is.
If HubSpot does something that doesn’t make sense, we talk about it. And after IMPACT went through a rough period back in 2015, Bob didn’t hide behind a veil of secrecy.

We wear this level of external transparency as a badge of honor at IMPACT and when we asked folks what made us different, honesty and transparency
At CES 2018, companies from the TV, appliance, artificial intelligence (AI), automotive, and other spaces venture to show off their futuristic products for consumers.
With the increased popularity of voice-controlled products and integrations with smart speakers, many companies came showing off to make sure they beat their own competitors to the voice game.
Meanwhile, car companies hit the floor to show off their new and improved vehicles equipped with self-driving
It’s 7:30 a.m. on a Thursday morning — at least it is here on the East Coast.
Normally, I would be bending over backward to ease you into the day with a few inspirational quotes or maybe even a quick how-to. But at this moment, you and I have bigger fish to fry.
Here’s the deal, folks. Early bird pricing for IMPACT Live ’18 ends on January 17 — and if you haven’t gotten your tickets yet, I’m going to need you to sit down.

You ever feel like you’re Superwoman(man) because you worked 70 hours in a week? How ’bout working weekends?
Do you get hi-fives in the office because you’re still there at 9pm?
What is working long hours really doing for you? Does it really make you that much more productive?

With video marketing on the rise, coming up with a catchy and attractive video can be a huge challenge for those who lack the time (and money).
That’s where the beauty of Facebook Live comes in. Making its debut in 2016, the service has enabled users to make videos that stream live using only a minimum of your smartphone’s camera to capture it.

“Good artists copy, great artists steal.”
This famous quote by Picasso is the premise for Austin Kleon’s renowned book, Steal Like an Artist: 10 Things Nobody Told You About Being Creative.
Based on his 2012 Tedx Talk, Kleon shows us how to “steal” ideas from everything around us, combine them with each other (along with our own ideas) to create something entirely new.
It is a quick, but informative, read that is focused on being actionable, wastes no
