UsabilityHub Co-Founder Matt Milosavljevic joins us to discuss how remote user testing can help you make confident design decisions. UsabilityHub offers an entire suite of quick and simple usability tests that designers and marketers have used on projects of all sizes.

On the fifth episode of Inbound Unboxed, we dive into the fast-paced world of usability testing. Inbound marketers already know how helpful it is to make informed design and usability decisions that are backed with real data.

For a while, there just wasn't an easy way to actually implement such tests and scale them as needed. UsabilityHub is solving that problem, with a suite of tests including the Five Second Test, Click Test, Question Test, Navflow Test, and Preference Test.

Whether you're a designer looking to get quick feedback on two variations of a proposed logo, or a marketer trying to decide on the best call-to-action for a website homepage, conducting a proper usability test can make all the difference.

Today we're talking all about productivity and marketing tools, with productivity blogger Paul Minors. We cover 20 different tools and products, from WordPress plugins to calendar apps. If you're looking to become more productive either at work in general, or specifically as an inbound marketer, you won't want to miss this one!

Paul Minors joins us all the way from New Zealand to share his insights into personal productivity and marketing. Those two interests–productivity and marketing–don't often overlap, but there is more in common between them than you might think.

The best marketers take their personal productivity routines very seriously. From using specific apps to stay organized throughout the day, to having a systematized approach to launching a new product, it makes sense to work smarter rather than work harder.

In this interview, we dive into the interplay between marketing and productivity, and how you can benefit from it. Paul mentions 20 of his favorite tools and products that have helped him attract a loyal online following, collect new leads, and even launch a product.

We also discuss Paul's new digital product, the Personal Productivity Toolkit, a comprehensive set of resources that will teach you how to create a productive mindset and system. Paul spent the last 12 months curating this content and putting everything he knows into this one download. We also cover how he actually created and launched his toolkit and which tools he used in the process.

In this episode, you'll learn:

  • How marketing and productivity are related.
  • Which tools Paul recommends to marketers who are looking to get more out of their day.
  • How Paul launched his first digital product, and which tools he used to make it happen.
  • The two essential apps that every personal productivity stack should contain.
  • How Paul saves time by using email automation.
  • And much more!
