You know the feeling: that “night-before-the-first-day-of-school,” “can’t sleep” sense of childlike excitement? With Dreamforce just around the corner, we are all about it. Soon, the smartest minds in marketing will converge in San Francisco to learn with — and from — fellow Trailblazers. We can’t wait for you to see what we have planned.

With so many exciting things taking place at Dreamforce, it’s safe to say the learning opportunities are vast. That’s why we’ve created a must-see list of the top five experiences marketers should have on their radar:

 

1. Don't miss the B2C Marketing Keynote with Pitbull – you could win your dream vacation.

Hear how companies like Sierra Club, Fidelity Investments, and Hotels.com are responding to those trends by transforming consumer engagement across every brand touchpoint — from marketing to sales, commerce, and service. Be inspired, hear customer success stories, and get insights to deepen your customer relationships with consumer engagement at scale.
