Hi, I’m Craig Bailey and this is my personal blog where I write about technology, business systems, HubSpot, marketing strategy and general life experiences. You can read my posts here.
I’m involved with two agencies in Sydney:
I also co-host HubShots, the podcast and YouTube show focussed on getting the most out of HubSpot. We are the creators of the HubShots Framework.
I’ve just returned from the Devcon opening keynote, and what a great keynote it was. 2.5 hours jam packed with demos, features and anecdotes.
Afterwards I met Lisa Slater Nicholls and Colin Nicholls, then David Stevenson, Ken Levy, Doug Hennig and to finish the night, The Man himself: Rick Strahl. Oh man, so many VFP heroes in one place. How will I sleep?

I’ll reserve stating my current position, as I’ve only read one side of the story, but with an election only...
So I’m 34 today. Am I feeling older? Wiser? More confident and mature? Who cares? Just tell us what presents you got! Well, my wife has excelled herself this year. First up she gives me the new Alter Bridge album (think Creed with a new singer). Now, after checking the web these guys are huge in the US. But down here… never heard of ’em.
