DESCRIPTION

Join Meagen Eisenberg, Vice President of Demand Generation, DocuSign, and Daniel Burstein, Director of Editorial Content, MECLABS, as they walk through how DocuSign took what might have been a pretty standard email effort, and instead of using its email database, it utilized LinkedIn to send a series of sponsored InMails from its webinar speakers.
