Quote, attributable to Brian Halligan, CEO, HubSpot
"David is perfect for our advisory board because he shares our passion for changing marketers' understanding and practices in the new Internet-centric world that we live in. Marketing is evolving at breakneck speed and no one knows this more than David. We look forward to working with him in the future as we continue to evangelize our vision for Internet marketing."

Quote, attributable to David Meerman Scott
"Rather than following the old rules of command-and-control, message-driven advertising and PR, organizations need to speak directly to their customers and buyers with targeted messages that help them solve problems instead of bombarding them with interruption advertising they'll likely ignore. I really like what HubSpot has done to make it easy to implement the new rules of marketing by delivering a complete integrated marketing platform for small and medium sized businesses."
