So why on earth would you need to listen to our blog? Four awesome reasons, for starters ...


4 Great Reasons You'd Want to Listen to This Blog


1. Listen While You Commute: Got a long commute? HubSpot blog content strikes a healthy balance between the two extremes of listening to Lady Gaga on your way to work and listening to boring, nonfictional books on tape. A nice degree of intellectual stimulation, don't you agree?


2. Listen While You Clean: Cleaning your apartment/house/bathroom/car just got a whole lot more valuable. Now you can learn how to "Retweet the Right Way" while you dust!


3. Listen While You Exercise: What would pump you up during your exercise routine more than listening to a blog article about how to create awesome infographics?


4. Listen While You Bathe: Taking a bubble bath to relax after a long day's work? Light some candles, and fire up the audio version of "A Guide to Marketing Automation."


In all seriousness, there are a ton of great reasons why you'd want to listen to the HubSpot blog. Whether you're visually impaired, on the go, or constantly busy doing a million different things, the Vocalyze App enables you to stay on top of all the great inbound marketing blog content HubSpot has to offer.


So what are you waiting for? Grab your headphones and a dustpan and brush, and listen while you work!
