MarketingSherpa Presents Lead Gen Summit 2013 Sept. 30 - Oct. 3 in San Francisco

JACKSONVILLE, Fla., July 16, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- MarketingSherpa is hosting Lead Gen Summit 2013 in San Francisco Sept. 30 – Oct. 3. All presenters will be in-the-trenches marketers who have driven impressive lead-generation results and can provide actionable education to help other marketers do the same in their organizations.

Through four days of case studies and collaboration, attendees will learn how to:

• Attract and engage more customers
• More effectively and efficiently identify who is sales-ready and who isn't
• Nurture curious shoppers into knowledgeable buyers
• Deliver more high-quality leads to their sales team

"Our events are vendor-neutral. What that means for attendees is that they're not going to hear sales pitches from the podium, only helpful, unbiased information they can use to immediately begin improving lead generation when they return to the office," says Justin Bridegan, Senior Marketing Manager, MECLABS. "Our goal is to ensure summit investment provides ongoing dividends in the form of measurably greater success for themselves and their organizations."

The Lead Gen Summit is an evolution of MarketingSherpa's B2B Summit, which it has hosted for the past decade.

"We wanted to broaden our scope to benefit both the B2B and B2C marketplaces with more expertise, case studies and in-depth analysis," explains Bridegan.
