Although Salesforce’s annual conference Dreamforce wraps up today, social media buzz around the event may take a while yet to die down. This isn’t much of a surprise considering the conference’s dense schedule of keynotes and sessions, as well as the star-studded roster of guest speakers, which included Hilary Clinton, Neil Young, and Will.I.AM, with a concert helmed by Bruno Mars.
Dreamforce’s smattering of panels and sessions ostensibly addressed many of the marketing world’s top issues, including data, CRM, customer experience, the relationship between sales and marketing, and pretty much every other hotbed topic important to the modern marketer. Social conversation around the event has been constant, diverse, and equal parts hilarious and insightful. Here’s some of what attendees have had to say about Dreamforce 2014.
