Marketers are our future; how to get them to choose Drupal.

Many of us have heard at recent DrupalCon and Drupal events that Drupal needs to be (and is working towards being) more marketer-friendly, along with the need to "Promote Drupal" echoed in the last few Driesnotes. The issue with this is we are a technical-heavy community, therefore often the message isn’t getting any further than these events.

This session will cover what marketers really look for when selecting a CMS and how we (as marketers) suggest moving this initiative forward. It is an opportunity to pick the brains of a team of experts from various Drupal-focused agencies who personally use the CMS as non-technical web managers and promote Drupal in their day-to-day to those looking to move to the platform, along with providing marketing consulting to some of the largest organizations that already choose Drupal.
