The best part about the Cybersecurity Marketing Society is the community. When I started in cybersecurity marketing long ago, I didn’t have others to compare notes with. Now, anytime a cybersecurity marketer has a question, wants to understand what peers are experiencing or simply vent about something, there’s a highly engaged group for that.

I’m a member of several Slack groups and what makes the Cybersecurity Marketing Society stand out for me is the close knit nature of the group.

More so than any of the other groups I’m in, this one feels like a true group of friends who just happen to also be amazing cybersecurity marketers.

The Society has helped me look at my projects with a different perspective, as well as allow me to approach work challenges in new and innovative ways.

This is a really cool group of similar-minded professionals. The group managers create many interesting events, highlighting the accomplishments of the members. Other groups I’m in just put everyone in one place and that’s it.

Additionally, I reached out personally to members asking for their experiences with other vendors who I considered. Got real honest feedback that saved me time and money.

As a marketing professional new to cybersecurity, the help and open attitude I have experienced here has been awesome. The CyberMarketingCon was awesome and I learned a lot!

I have developed a couple of cool co-mentoring relationships that have already proven valuable! Plus it is just good to know that other people understand the challenges and frustrations of our niche world!

The Society’s ad hoc mentoring let me reach out to another marketer in the community, and we’ve established a mutually beneficial relationship. My mentor is a marketer who moved into cybersecurity, while I’m a cybersecurity compliance person who moved into marketing.

Together, we’ve established an excellent question/answer feedback process that’s allowed us to create a professional relationship and personal friendship.
