Presentations you don’t want to miss at the year’s biggest marketing event – Dreamforce.
The 2013 edition of Dreamforce, Salesforce’s annual convention, is fast-approaching, and my industrial marketing colleagues and I are eagerly awaiting a chance to see the next big things in marketing.
This year, Salesforce has over 1,000 sessions planned, including hands-on tutorials, roundtable discussions and keynote speakers.

I went through and picked out my favorites – the “best of the best” if you will, that I plan to attend while at Dreamforce.
