- Dan Slagen of HubSpot
Tell us about yourself in 280 characters.
I live in Boston, Massachusetts. Marketer by day, lover of staying athletic and being in the outdoors by night/weekends. I’ve benefitted as a marketer by working on both client and agency side, startups and corporations and am currently enjoying heading up paid lead generation on the HubSpot rocket ship.
What 3 web services or software can you not live without?
As I deal mostly with lead generation for HubSpot, I am usually in Gmail, Excel and Hubspot!
What services or software do you pay for?
A few that come to mind include HubSpot’s Lead Management Software (well, I don’t pay for it but I would), eMarketer Total Access, Compete and Hootsuite
Show us your dock!
What’s 1 service you love most people don’t know about?
Trello’s mobile app keeps me focused but I must mention Triple J’s radio app, which provides me with all the music I need to get through a day.
If our readers could solve any problem. What should they build for you?
I see a lot of students graduating school and entering the marketing world with little to no digital marketing knowledge. I would love to see more learning software programs developed for things like paid search, SEO, display, mobile, affiliate, email and video advertising.
How do you stay organized / productive?
While it isn’t easy, I find that staying dedicated to project plans, daily stand ups, media calendars and extremely open lines of communication helps the entire team stay focused, on task and most importantly on the same page.
