Hear from past attendees:

"This was my first time attending Demand Conf and I was impressed with the topics, tactics discussed and speakers. The practical nature of the advice and knowledge shared. A lot of webinars are guilty of “pie-in-the-sky” talk, but this one was immediately useful and it already helped me as I’m planning a digital campaign."
