There’s another conference in the cloud, and it’s all about digital marketing. This September, thousands of marketers will converge on Indianapolis for Connections, the Salesforce ExactTarget Marketing Cloud’s industry-premiere digital marketing conference, dedicated to inspiring, enabling, and educating marketers around the globe.

Whether you’re a marketing novice or expert, and whether you work for a B2B or B2C company, Connections has content tailored to your questions and needs. Take a look at our top six reasons YOU should be at Connections this September.

1. You’ll get to enjoy Indianapolis—one of the NYT’s top places to visit in 2014.

ExactTarget Marketing Cloud is headquartered in Indianapolis, which the New York Times hailed as one of the 52 best places to go in 2014. There’s no better time to visit Indy than during Connections, and we can’t wait to show you why.

Regardless of if your expertise or interests lie in email, social, web personalization, mobile, content, or cross-channel marketing, you’ll find sessions prepared just for you. And if you’re a CMO or marketing executive, you’ll find programming to help you become a more effective and empowered leader.
