Jaguar’s Rebrand: Bold Move or Costly Mistake?
Welcome to Creator Columns, where we bring expert HubSpot Creator voices to the Blogs that inspire and help you grow better. Jaguar’s recent rebrand has people talking, but not in the way most marketers hope for. Gone are the classic cues of British elegance. In their place is minimalism and “modernist exuberance.” Their rebrand campaigns involve cryptic videos, high-fashion models, and a new mantra: “Copy nothing. Delete ordinary.” Reactions have been mixed. Marketing legend Mark Ritson called it “f—ing lunacy,” while Rory Sutherland is reserving judgment, saying, “It’s too early to call.” So, what’s Jaguar playing at? What has Jaguar done? The historic […]

It stuck with me because, ironically, that’s when smart marketing spend becomes more critical than ever. Without it, companies risk spiraling deeper into inefficiency and lost opportunities. Is your audience on LinkedIn? Then why throw money at Facebook ads like crazy? And vice versa. But that’s just scratching the surface; Optimizing marketing spend is way more complex than it seems. Let’s start by exploring 10 real-life examples of how senior marketing pros optimize their campaigns. […]
How Our Events Team Saved Thousands using AI for INBOUND ’24
When HubSpot’s Global Events Team had its first kickoff planning session for INBOUND 2024, they weren’t sure about the creative direction they’d take. One thing was clear though: Given how huge AI has become in the last few years, they knew they’d incorporate it somehow. I connected with the team to learn more about the important role AI played in pre-production – from creating eye-catching visuals with Midjourney to targeted agendas with Claude. Creating Fresh Interstitials Prior to INBOUND 2024, the team kept the onsite interstitials pretty consistent year-over-year, sticking to static visual imagery and light animation. It was time […]

Full disclosure, I think my team and I are a little embarrassed. Believe it or not, blogging is kind of our main thing here at The HubSpot BLOG — so the fact that it‘s taken over a decade for us to put together our first-ever report on the state of blogging isn’t the best look.

The second best time is right now.” That’s why we surveyed over 500 marketers across various industries and company scales to get a pulse on the current […]

What Is Content Seeding & How Does It Work? Here’s the Expert Take [+ Examples]
Way back in the day, I participated in a kid’s gardening competition and won! Through my years in marketing, I’ve realized that gardening and marketing have a lot in common — especially when it comes to content seeding. Every summer, I start a vegetable garden. I purchase seeds, plant them, tend to them, and, with the right weather conditions, help them grow. Content seeding is very similar. However, instead of hoping to grow a prized zucchini, marketers “plant” content to grow brand awareness and leads. To better understand how content seeding works, I spoke with Jonathan Goldberg, founder and CEO […]
