3 quick thoughts and thanks...
Before we get into the show, we want to mention our producer Christopher Mottram and his company Podcastily:
Chris has been producing our show right from the start, and he does a fantastic job editing out all our waffle and stuff ups.
He produces some of the top podcasts globally, and as of today, the shows he’s produced have had a combined 20M downloads.
A big thank you to the Hoppe7 agency in Germany who included us in their 10 Best Inbound Marketing Podcasts of 2018 post:

Forms in HubSpot Marketing Free (with HubSpot branding!) & Marketing Starter.
You can now easily add very functional forms - even includes the ability to add File Upload type form fields.
Also includes reCAPTCHA spam bot prevention.
Plus HubSpot is rolling out Email sending in HubSpot Free as well. Look out MailChimp.
Wouldn’t be surprised if they roll out a stripped down version of landing pages in HubSpot Free as well in the coming months.
Not realising all the free features available to Sales Hub Free!
You can do this in HubSpot under Marketing > Reports > Analytics Tools > Traffic Analytics
You can also see this data in Google Analytics.
Plus, another bonus of the Traffic Analytics report is that the Page Type selector can tell the difference between blog pages and web pages of WordPress sites (unlike the Content Strategy tool which doesn’t seem to know about blog posts on external sites…)

We wanted to highlight 4 features that you can be using straight away for $0!
Should other marketing tools eg MailChimp & ActiveCampaign be concerned about HubSpot?
You can start running your business on Hubspot Marketing Starter & Sales Hub Free - and get a ton of value.
