Last week Hubspot announced they have received funding upwards of $32 Million. From powerhouses like SalesForce.com and Google Ventures, I am excited to seem some really great things in the near future.
Unfortunately, it seems like since the announcement, all I have really seen is a bunch of additional email marketing. Almost bordering on (dare I say) spam.
I have gotten email about e-books, webinars and even an announcement that they have "Launched a New Blog".
Really Hubspot?
$32,000,000 and you "Launch a Manufacturer's Marketing Blog" and kick up your email marketing so aggressively that I am now researching how to unsubscribe.
I say researching, because I did subscribe to receive some emails from your company.
I have always appreciated your educational webinars and really like your Grader Tools.
Unfortunately, sometimes more money is not always better for the product or consumer.
I hope this is not an indication of things to come and that you continue to focus your efforts on innovative tools for SEO, Inbound Marketing and Lead Generation.
We will be keeping an eye out.
In the meantime, please make it more clear as to what email lists I have subscribed to. The only option I have is to be removed from all. Which I do not want to do at this point.
We will see if this week brings me to that point or not.
