If you listen to the conversation 35 mins (I've done so 3x times), it's very insightful. This is the kind of stuff that a growth hacker really gets. The way I see it, in the B2B market, outside of Hubspot, very few companies are doing this

What's your perspective on other customer acquisition channels (via media buys) outside of search (PPC)? I'm curious about your take on mobile, CPI/PPI and display (outside of the google content network).
