Inbound Marketers, one of the LinkedIn groups that I belong to, is running a survey to collect data for their “2011 State of Inbound Marketing Report.” I found both the 2009 and 2010 reports full of great tidbits of information and useful data presented in bar graph and pie graph form. Not only have I utilized these past reports to educate myself, but I have handed them on to clients to back up my assertions about current trends in that marketing industry.

The nice part about the survey, which can be found at http://marketingstrategy.questionpro.com is that it is quick and concise. It only took me about seven minutes to complete. Complete the survey to have your data be reflected in the 2011 report. The larger the sample size, the more accurate the information will be. The planned release data for the 2011 report is March of this year.

Let’s all contribute to find out what trends we can expect in this year from the “2011 State of Inbound Marketing Report.”
