We’ve moved from the HOW to the WHO economy

In the old world, we:

• Used Google to find solutions
• Compared product specs
• Looked for the best information

Now we:

• Ask those we trust for recommendations
• See who else is using it
• Find a product with the best network

We’re no longer searching for answers to "how."

We now buy by searching for answers with “who.”

7 lessons learned from building Hopin’s agency program

In April 2020, Hopin, the leading virtual events platform, hit an unusual snag: extreme demand.

It’s coming... the biggest B2B event of the year

Last year, we made history at PL[X] by bringing together over 5,000 professionals for the biggest GTM event of the year.

This year, we’re blowing PL[X] away and replacing it with the Nearbound Summit.

We’re sick of living in an 80’s techno-dystopian future with bank runs, downturns, and layoffs.

But the only way out is together.

Join us, Nov 6 - 9, for a 4-day virtual event covering Nearbound strategies and tactics for every department.
